Basulto


BASULTO Yes there is a quarter of Bilbao named Basurto, there is a Big Hospital on it called Hospital of Basurto.

I have not find anithing about this surname with L., but if your ancestors came from South America can be probably a variation of the Surname Basurto, in some zones of South America they used to change the R in to L. I have loked up in a complete spanish atlas and there isn't any place called Basulto, so I think is not a spanish surname, but a basque one.

BASURTO: This surname was originated in Bizkaia, more concretely in Abando (today Bilbao), and there are also families with this name in Getaria and Alegria in Gipuzkoa. There were branches of this family in Andalucia and Castilla.

BASO: means forest, and URTO-ORTU, means cultivated place or vegetable garden. there are lots of proves of nobility, there were men with this surname, Knights of Santiago (1658,1660,1695,1779), Knights of Calatrava (1668,1671),Knight of Alcantara (1682), Knights of San Juan de Jerusalen (1734,1778,1789).
