[Surname] Re: Brestel
I've been searching for the meaning, but I have come up with nothing. Somehow, Brestel makes me think of Bristol, maybe Brestel is a variant of that name?

Regards,

Thanks for searching, Lucille!I think Brestel might have something to do with either Bressel (which comes from the town of Breslau) or Bretzel (pretzel), but I'm really not sure if I can be right... Yes, Bristol sounds quite similar but I couldn't find any connections...
Well, I'll keep searching. Thanks so much for helping me!
