Overview[]
Adair as a unique family surname is traceable back to the early 14th century when Irish-Norman noble of the FitzGerald dynasty fled for his life and adopted the name of the family home (Adare Castle) for a new identity in Scotland. His descendants grew to significant prestige in Wigtownshire and then many were part of the potato famine migration to Ireland a couple hundred years later. More details can be found at Adair Family Ancestry.
