Kendrick

In ancient Scotland, the ancestors of the Kendrick family were part of a tribe called the Picts. The name Kendrick is derived from the personal name Henry. The surname Kendrick was first found in Ayrshire and Fife where the intrusive "d" is common as in "Hendry." The earliest records are in the Latin form: "Henricus, dapifer, a witness c. 1183-88, and Henricus (Chen), bishop of Aberdeen, 1282-1328."
