The Jordan family was originally known as MacSiurtan which was the Gaelic surname adopted by the hibernized Norman family d'Exeter who descended from Jordan d'Exeter who came to Ireland after 1172. The emigrant ancestor of the Jordans in Ontario, Canada was William (1782-1870) and his wife, Lavinia Acton (1788-1883). They were born in County Mayo which was their ancestral home. The Jordans came to Canada in the early 1840s and settled in Torbolton, Ontario. Over 1720 descendents live throughout Canada and the United States.
