Pendreig
Can anybody tell me a meaning for my surname? My family are british all the way back. I thought Pen might be the same as in the name Penrose or would i be wrong?

According to Black's The Surnames of Scotland, Pendreig(h) is an alteration of Pittendreigh which comes from one of the places named Pittendriech or Pittendreigh. There's also a place named Pendreich which might be more directly related to Pendreig(h).
