Latxaga Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
A Basque surname traced back to Mungia in the province of Bizkaia, Spain. All the outliers are descendants of the original Basque line. Latxaga is likely the original spelling given that tx = ch phonetically.
Basque is a language not related to any other in the world. Therefore, Basque names outside the seven provinces in Spain and France would be through marriage and a descendant line. Basques were also avid and capable sailors. As such they were open to emigration via shipping connections and since they could also speak Spanish, Latin America was a prime destination as was America.
