Andrews (surname)
Andrews is a patronymic surname of English, Scottish, and Norse origin.[1] At the time of the 1881 British Census, its relative frequency was highest in Dorset (3.6 times the British average), followed by Wiltshire, Huntingdonshire, Worcestershire, Hampshire, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Devon and Somerset.[2]
The surname Andrews was first found in Caithness, North Scotland. Historically, the Andrews clan were closely associated with Clan Ross.
