Yes that's old, but the name dates back to Royality in Holland in th 1500's, The Royal family decided to send the best stonecutters to the isle of Brac off the northern Greek coast to cut granite for what was to become the Hague. Jurras is a rather popular name in Greece. But we are not Greek.
Col Askins asked me once why I never told him I was Greek. Told him the above story. His daughter married a Greek guy, and that's how he found out about the name. FWIW dept.
