Suttie History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
Early Origins of the Suttie family
The surname Suttie was first found in Perthshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Pheairt) former county in the present day Council Area of Perth and Kinross, located in central Scotland, where they held a family seat. Early records make it difficult to distinguish Sidey and Suttie, and the latter would seem to be derived from the former. Both name descend from the "parish of Knockbain, but the name is more likely to be from the Suthie recorded in Perth Retours." 1
The first record appears to be that of Richard de Sudy who was present at the ceremony of homage between Duncan, Earl of Fife, and the Abbot of Dunfermline in 1316. Later, Nicol Syddie was a vicar of St. Bothans in 1574. Here the records depart from one another, Sydie, Sidey, Syddie Siddey going one way and the Suttie in another. (BLack)
