Surnames: Lozano

To the best of my knowledge, the first time in history that the name Lozano is mentioned, is when El Cid kills the father of his future wife, Dona Ximena, in a duel or fight. The father of Dona Ximena was the Conde (Count) of Casa Lozano. One of my maternal great-grandfathers was Jose Geronimo Lozano y Gonzalez. He was killed in a duel that took place in Havana in the late 1800s. He belonged to a sort of elitist social group, whose members used to duel every once in a while. This group was known as the "Jovenes de la Acera del Louvre." I personally had never heard of the connection mentioned by this person.
