My name is Dennis Entrikin and I know my last name is Scottish, however I can not find anything about my heritage. The Entrikin name was changed when we came to America but I don't know what it was. I have looked through many books that have clan names in them and I cannot find Entrikin or anything that even comes close. Any help would be greatly appriciated. |

Hi Dennis, the name Entrikin (or Enterikin), is mainly found in Paisley, Bridgeton, Denniston ... Renfrew. If you go to: www.familysearch.com Go into search ancestors, put the name in, then log into Scotland ... lotsa info there. |

The name is actually quite rare, and many families migrated to the central belt in search of work. However, Enterkin as a surname is generated from the place of the same name, in Durisdeer Parish, Dumfriesshire.------------------ 'Demeure par la verite' Visit; Gordon's Scottish Castles Resource Page
