Notes for this person
The writing of the family name varies widely over the various records.
Recorded in several spellings including Gans, Ganz, Gantz, Ganzer, Ganser, Gantzer, Gantzman, and possibly others, this is a medieval German surname. It has three possible origins. The first is occupation and describes a goose farmer, from the pre 7th century word "gans" meaning goose. The second is residential and describes somebody who lives at a goose farm, or possibly a village so-named, whilst the third possibility is a nickname. Some fifteen percent of all surnames derive from nicknames associated with animals, birds, and parts of the human body.
The name Ganser will be used uniformly to designate all persons belonging to this family. This is how the name should be written in German nowadays.
