BlakeThe surname Berumen has German origins even though many ancestry websites give it a Mexican origin. There were two brothers who migrated from Bremen, Germany to Zacatecas, Mexico to work in the silver mines (their last name was Bremen). Once they were in Mexico the brothers married some native girls. To become more assimilated to the Mexican Culture they changed their last name from Bremen to Berumen.
