The Surnames of Ireland, 6th Edition, by
Edward MacLysaght, Irish Academic Press,1991.
ohn's notes on the spellings: "Start with the listing
for Manley, then cross reference to Monnelly. The last one
(O'Maonghaile) is one my dad told once me about, from his
family oral tradition, as a possible original or intermediate
Gaelic form
of the (Irish branch cs) family name."
*** Scottish variants courtesy of David H J Schenck in the
County of Surrey, England.
"I have searched the 1881 British Census (Scotland only).
This shows a total all spelling variatons) of 3943 entries.
Having checked through all of these I found the following
nine variations in the spelling of the name Manley'".
In addition to the above names for England and France, it has
long been my supposition that the deMaule, Maule family and
the deManley, Manley family of Manley, France and later Cheshire,
England (circa 1100-1300s) may very well be one and the same
family.
There are many historical documents that seem to indicate
a possible "overlapping" of the lines, especially
in the line of the DeManleys. Maud deManley married Iorwerth
Goch ap Meredydd.
There is also a record for Maude deMaule who also married
none other than ~ Iorwerth Goch ap Meredydd.
There are also military records in the archives of the UK
giving the name of a deManley & a de Maule (same given
name), at the same time, in the same place, fighting in the
same campaign.
