Weinstein
Weinstein is a German-language surname meaning wine stone, referring to the crystals of potassium bitartrate resulting from the process of fermenting grape juice. Maybe of professionnal origin : "...Le seul but du «Feissel», l'ancien colporteur devenu boulanger, du «Winsteinjud» qui achetait le tartre déposé au fond des cuves pour le revendre à une teinturerie, du «Lumba-jud» qui récupérait les chiffons et peaux de lapin, ..." in "Juifs et Français", by André Harris & Alain de Sédouy, Grasset publ. Paris 1979.
