Straiton History

The surname Straiton, also seen as Straton and Stratton, is of territorial origin, coming from the barony of Straiton in the parish of Liberton in Midlothian. There is also a barony of Straiton in Ayrshire, and a barrony of Stratton in Fife.

In 1285, a Richard de Stratun is recorded as being a messanger of Alexander III, and he may be the same person as the Richard de Straton who was witness to a charter seven years later, in 1292.
