We weren't able to find any information about the name "Dunaway." We couldn't find any clear evidence that it was derived from an Irish or Scottish name. However, "Dun-" is a common element in Gaelic names and it's possible that it derived from an Irish or Scottish place that we haven't identified. There are numerous people who are doing genealogical research into "Dunaway," and a Web search for your name will get you in contact with them. This is probably the best way to start.
Heather Rose Jones and Brian Scott researched this letter.
We hope this has been helpful, and that we can continue to assist you.
Sincerely,
