Suslak...any help?
I am from the UK and am one of the ten only Suslaks in the UK, all of whom are members of my family. My paternal grandfather, who was born with Suslak as his surname, is from Austria, but I know that the surname is originally from Poland.
We are all at a loss to work out what it means, and what I would like to know is if you know anyone with that name (I know it is more common in the US) or if by any chance you know the meaning.
Thanks :)

My suspicion is that Suslak is derived from suseł 'gopher' but you might want to check this at http://www.polishroots.org/surnames/surnames_index.htm
