Where did the Scottish Magaly family come from? What is the Scottish Magaly family crest and coat of arms? When did the Magaly family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Magaly family history? The ancestors of the Magaly family come from the ancient Scottish kingdom of Dalriada. The family name comes from a devotion to Christianity. The Gaelic form of the name is M'A'Lios, which is a shortened form of Mac Giolla Iosa, meaning son of the servant of Jesus. Historical recordings of the name Magaly include many spelling variations. They are the result of repeated translations of the name from Gaelic to English and inconsistencies in spelling rules. They include MacLeish, MacCleish, MacLise, MacLish, MacGillies, MacGleish, MacGillis, MacLeash and many more. First found in Perthshire, where they held a family seat from early times and their first records appeared on the early rolls taken by the Kings of England and Scotland.

Their descendants still populate many communities in the eastern parts of both the United States and Canada. Some settled in Canada as United Empire Loyalists, in the wake of the American War of Independence. Families on both sides of the border have recovered much of their heritage in the 20th century through Clan societies and highland games. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants bore the name Magaly or a variant listed above: Anne McLeish settled in Pennsylvania in 1833; George and Catherine McGillis settled in Pennsylvania in 1773.
