Looks like a variant of Treleven, which is a Cornish surname that has quite a few different spellings. 'Tre' is a Cornish prefix meaning homestead & Leven is likely a personal name.
(Cornish = from Cornwall, a county in the south of England. If you'd like to know more about Cornwall, here's a link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornwall )
