The surname Fordyce has its roots in Scotland and is of territorial origin, derived from the place name Fordyce in Banffshire. However, there is also a notable presence of the Fordyce surname among people of Irish descent.
The Fordyce name in Ireland can be traced back to the 17th century when a Scottish family with the surname settled in Ulster. Many Scots-Irish families migrated to Ireland during the Plantation of Ulster, which took place from the late 16th to early 17th century. These settlers brought their surnames with them, including Fordyce.
Over the years, the Fordyce surname became established in various parts of Ireland, particularly in the counties of Antrim, Down, and Londonderry. The Fordyce families in Ireland likely intermarried with other Scottish and English settlers, as well as with the native Irish population. This would have contributed to the spread and diversity of the surname within the country.
Today, people with the Fordyce surname of Irish descent can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world where Irish migration has occurred, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. The surname continues to carry the history and heritage of those early Scottish settlers who made their homes in Ireland.
