The surname Callander is of Irish descent and has an interesting history. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "caladh," meaning "harbor" or "landing place." It is believed that the original bearers of the surname may have lived near a harbor or a place where boats were docked.
The earliest known recording of the surname Callander is found in the Annals of the Four Masters, a chronicle of Irish history, in the year 919 AD. The Callanders were said to be a prominent family in County Leitrim, located in the province of Connacht in western Ireland. They were known for their agricultural and landowning pursuits.
During the Irish diaspora in the 19th century, many Callanders emigrated from Ireland to other parts of the world, particularly to North America and Australia, in search of better opportunities and escape from political and economic hardships. As a result, the surname Callander can now be found in various countries around the globe.
Today, the name Callander is relatively rare and is most commonly found among people of Irish descent. Many individuals with the surname have taken great interest in tracing their genealogy and have formed a strong sense of pride in their Irish heritage.
