The PEFFERS surname 

in Scotland

 

Peffers is a name rarely found in Scotland or throughout the world but the highest concentration of the surname is in Scotland

In common with many other Scots, the Peffers emigrated and can now be found in Australia, New Zealand, North America, and South Africa.

There are not many notable Peffers however Ruth Peffers from South Africa became a well known actress and Andrew Peffers was elected Provost of Forfar (Angus, Scotland). Both of these lived in the early part of the 20th Century.

The majority of the information has been obtained from source documents and is relatively complete up to about 1920.  However to protect the living I have excluded anyone born after 1900.  Also, for my own use, if I have been unable to establish a date of death, I have assumed a maximum age of 90 years.
