      Maule surname
      From The Surnames of Scotland1:
      The de Maules were descended from the de Maules who possessed the seigneurie of that name in the department of Seine-et-Oise. The first of the name in Scotland appears to have been Robert, who probably came in the train of David I. He appears as witness in a charter by Henry, earl of Northumberland, David's younger son, granting lands in Northumberland to Eustace Fitzjohn. He seems to have had grants of land in the Lothians, and may have given name to Mauldslie in Temple parish. William, son of Robert, took part in the battle of the Standard, 1138, and obtained the lands of Easter Fowlis in Perthshire. He witnessed c. 1141 confirmation of a charter by Earl Henry to the curch of S. Mary of Haddington of the lands of Clerchetune, now Clerkington. He also had grants of tofts in Selkirk and Clackmannan from Malcolm IV. By the marriage of Peter de Maule with Christina de Valoniis before 1215 he acquired the large baronies of Panmure and Bervie.
