The surname Straiton has an interesting history, especially for those of Irish descent. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "srath," meaning a broad river valley, and the Old English word "tun," meaning a farm or settlement. This suggests that the original bearers of the surname may have lived in or near a river valley.
The earliest recorded instances of the surname Straiton can be found in Scotland, particularly in the regions of Ayrshire and Lanarkshire. It is believed that the name first arrived in Scotland during the medieval period, possibly through Norman or Anglo-Norman settlers. Over time, some individuals bearing the surname migrated to Ireland.
In Ireland, the Straiton name can be found primarily in County Tyrone and County Antrim. It is likely that these individuals were descendants of those Scottish settlers who moved across the Irish Sea. The Straitons in Ireland were involved in various occupations, including farming, trade, and military service.
Today, individuals with the Straiton surname can be found all around the world, particularly in countries with historical connections to Scotland and Ireland, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The surname continues to be passed down through generations, keeping alive the history and heritage of those who bear it.
