The history of the last name D'Auria

The surname Dauria has its origins in Russia, dating back to the 16th century. It is believed to be derived from the Daurian steppe, a region located in eastern Russia and northern Mongolia. The name likely originated from the Daur people, an ethnic group native to this area.

In the late 16th century, the Dauria surname began appearing in historical records and documents from the Russian Empire. One notable early reference is found in the Remezov Chronicle, a 17th-century manuscript detailing the exploration and settlement of Siberia.

The earliest recorded bearer of the Dauria name was Ivan Dauria, a Russian explorer and cartographer born around 1580. He is known for his expeditions to the Amur River region and his detailed maps of eastern Siberia.

Another significant figure was Mikhail Dauria (1625-1692), a military commander who played a crucial role in the Russian conquest of the Amur region. He led several campaigns against the Manchu and Daur tribes, securing Russian control over the territory.

In the 18th century, the Dauria surname was associated with the town of Dauriia, now known as Chita, located in the Zabaykalsky Krai region of Russia. The town's name was derived from the nearby Dauria steppe.

Andrei Dauria (1745-1820) was a notable landowner and entrepreneur from Dauriia. He established a successful trading business and was instrumental in the development of the local economy.

During the 19th century, the Dauria name spread beyond its original geographic region. Nikolai Dauria (1825-1887) was a renowned artist and painter from St. Petersburg, whose works depicted landscapes and scenes from Russian history.
