Where did the Irish Mallone family come from? What is the Irish Mallone family crest and coat of arms? When did the Mallone family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Mallone family history? Throughout history, very few Irish surnames have exclusively maintained their original forms. Before being translated into English, Mallone appeared as O Maoileoin, which denotes a devotee of St. John. The Middle Ages saw a great number of spelling variations for surnames common to the Irish landscape. One reason for these variations is the fact that surnames were not rigidly fixed by this period. The following variations for the name Mallone were encountered in the archives: Malone, Mallone, Mallonee, O'Malone and others. First found in the Irish Province of Connacht. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Mallone research.

In the 19th century, thousands of Irish left their English-occupied homeland for North America. Like most new world settlers, the Irish initially settled on the eastern shores of the continent but began to move westward with the promise of owning land. The height of this Irish migration came during the Great Potato Famine of the late 1840s. With apparently nothing to lose, Irish people left on ships bound for North America and Australia. Unfortunately a great many of these passengers lost their lives - the only thing many had left - to disease, starvation, and accidents during the long and dangerous journey. Those who did safely arrive in "the land of opportunities" were often used for the hard labor of building railroads, coal mines, bridges, and canals. The Irish were critical to the quick development of the infrastructure of the United States and Canada. Passenger and immigration lists indicate that members of the Mallone family came to North America quite early: Mallone Settlers in the United States in the 18th Century

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Fidelis ad urnam Motto Translation: Faithful to the tomb.
The Mallone Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Mallone Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname. This page was last modified on 27 October 2010 at 13:49. ©2000-2012 Swyrich Corporation.
