Migration of the Bogale family
The farms of Scottish settlers soon dotted the east coast of the colonies that would become the nations of the United States and Canada. Many of those migrants and their children went on to play important roles in the founding the great nations of North America. Early North American immigration records have revealed a number of people bearing the Scottish name Bogale or a variant listed above, including: Robert Bogle who settled in Grenada in 1774; Robert Bogle settled in New Orleans in 1820; James, Leonard and Robert Bogle settled in Philadelphia between 1832 to 1860..
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: Et labore dulcedo Motto Translation: Both sweetness and work
