*
Because the British Preble file contained a "Joseph Peeble (Preble)", I also checked all surname Peeble, but there were no other households where there were Peebles and Prebles together.

** Prebel is the only spelling that is shared by those of both British and non-British origin.  I presume the former are due to misspelling.
