Early Origins of the Cadiou family

The surname Cadiou was first found in Lanarkshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Lannraig) a former county in the central Strathclyde region of Scotland, now divided into the Council Areas of North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, and the City of Glasgow, where they held a family seat in their territories. The Pictish influence on Scottish history diminished after Kenneth Macalpine became King of all Scotland. But those east coast families still played an important role in government and were more accessible to Government than their western highland counterparts. Alliances were important to Scottish middle age survival. Later they held a family seat at Lanark when Adam de Cadiou or Cadyow rendered homage to the King of Edward 1st in 1296.
