Tracing the origins and history of the KOSBAB surname.
The KOSBAB family web site is genealogy based research into the history of the Kosbab surname including references to Kosbau, Kusbab, Westlake, Rosser and Huenchen.
The surname Kosbab is a very old German name meaning: Goat Shepherd
- kos (for: Ziege = goat)
- bab (for: Bube = Boy )
- Kosbab = Ziegenbub = shepherd for goats.
So the first Kosbab’s might have been goat herders, or its why I call my brother an old goat!
