Lang Syne Scottish Clan Crest Tartan Information History Fact Book - Andrews

The Origins of the Andrews and Their Place in History A proud surname that has a particular resonance with Scotland, ‘Andrews’ derives through reverence for the disciple of Jesus who became the nation’s patron saint. Although first found in Caithness, at some stage in the twelfth century some bearers of the name re-settled much further south in Dumfriesshire and subsequently from there to Northern Ireland. Shot through with tales of both heroism and infamy, their colourful saga is presented here. Book Dimensions 10 × 0.4 × 14.5 cm
