Wulfgar,
I found the following reference:
http://www.compusmart.ab.ca/kdufield/genealgy/main4.htm
which may you give at least a starting point for further research. It gives Duffel as a variant of the English name Duffield or Duffeld, and shows the earliest recorded instance as Duffeld as 1190. Hope this helps.
