Delos Family History

Hispanic: abstracted as a surname from fused preposition de ‘of’ and definite article los ‘the’ (in plural) common components of Spanish surnames (as in e.g. De los Santos). — Note: It is possible that (in some cases) this is counted as an independent surname only in the population figure published by the US Census Bureau.

Catalan (Delós or Delòs): variant of d'Alós or d'Alòs habitational names from any of the towns named with those words as for example Alós d'Isil (in the district of El Pallars) or Alòs de Balaguer (in the district of La Noguera) in Catalonia.

French (southern): probably a habitational name for someone from Alos in Ariège or from any of the places in Catalonia (Spain) named Alós or Alòs (see 2 above).

French (northern): habitational name for someone from either of two places called Loos in Nord and Pas-de-Calais.
