Scadden Family History
Scadden Name Meaning
English (Dorset): unexplained. The name may be linked with the Southwest English dialect word scad meaning ‘salmon fry’ and ‘peat slab’ (in either case in an old regional plural form in -en) but no certainty is possible. Scaddans have also been established in Tipperary since the 12th century.
