The Whitfield presence is Scotland is relatively small. Given that the major branch of the Whitfields expanded from their base in Northumberland it may have been reasonably to expect some branches of the family moved north to Scotland. However, evidence (to date) suggests that the only significant of Whitfields appear around Glasgow and in Lanarkshire. However there are a significant number of Whitefields (approximately three times as many as Whitfields)
