The surname Dundas has its origins in Scotland, and it is primarily associated with the Scottish nobility. The name comes from the old barony of Dundas, located near South Queensferry in West Lothian. The Dundas family played a significant role in Scottish history, with Sir James Dundas serving as Keeper of the Privy Seal of Scotland in the 16th century. In terms of Irish descent, the surname Dundas is not as common as it is in Scotland. However, there are some instances of people of Irish ancestry bearing the name. These individuals are likely descendants of Scottish settlers who migrated to Ireland during periods of Scottish colonization or through the Plantation of Ulster in the 17th century. During this time, many Scottish families moved to Ireland, including those with the Dundas surname. These settlers may have established themselves in various parts of Ireland, resulting in the presence of Dundas families in different regions. It is important to note that the number of individuals with the surname Dundas of Irish descent may be relatively small compared to those of Scottish descent. However, the Irish Dundas families who do exist may have preserved their Scottish heritage and traditions throughout the generations. Overall, while the Dundas surname is more commonly associated with Scotland, there are still individuals of Irish descent who bear this surname due to historical migration and settlement patterns.
