Maulay Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
De malo lacu; a baronial name. The first who came to England was Peter de Maulay, a Poitevin, brought over by King John, and distinctly accused by Ralph Niger and Henry Knighton of being the tool he employed for ridding himself of his nephew Arthur. Peter’s reward was the heiress of Doncaster, Isabella de Turnham, who brought him the barony of Mulgrave. “This Peter de Malo-lacu, commonly called Mauley, built a castle, which, from its grace and beauty, he named, in French, Moultgrace; but because it became a grievance to the neighbours, the people, by changing one letter, named it Moultgrave; by which name it ever after remained known.”—Banks. Peter de Maulay is obviously an interpolation; but it must be observed, that a "Seigneur de Meulay” is to be found on the list given in Tailleur’s Chronicle of Normandy.
