Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the MacArdle family history? The name MacArdle originally appeared in Gaelic as Mac Ardghail, which is derived from the word "ardghal," which means "high valor."In the days before Gaelic or English gained any significant semblance of standardization, the scribes who created documents simply recorded names as they sounded. Consequently, in the Middle Ages many people were recorded under different spellings each time their name was written down. Research into the MacArdle family history revealed numerous spelling variations of the name, including MacArdle, MacCardle, MacCardell, McArdle and others. First found in County Louth, where they held a family seat from ancient times. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our MacArdle research.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, hundreds of thousands of Irish immigrants landed on North American shores. Although many of them were merely looking for a free plot of land and living of their very own, many later immigrants were desperately fleeing an overcrowded land that did not have sufficient food for its inhabitants. The exodus from Ireland was greatest during the 1840s when the Great Potato Famine had stricken the island. Although this large influx of Irish was unpopular with the great majority of people already established within the major centers, these Irish were critical to the speedy development of the United States and those colonies that would eventually become known as Canada. These immigrants provided the cheap labor required to build modern roads, bridges, canals, and railways. Research of passenger and immigration lists has shown a number of immigrants to North America baring the name of MacArdle: MacArdle Settlers in the United States in the 19th Century
