Hi Tam:

This is the information I have,


From the Irish Magsheanlaoich
Anglicized to McShanley
Further anglicized to Ganly, Gantley, Gandley

Meaning of the name Magsheanlaoich

Mag:  son of
Shean - old
Laoich - hero

Here's a link to a picture of the shield

Thanks for that link Colette, I knew there was another place I had seen it, but could not find it.

Tam, the link I gave you, you have to look under the "M" for McShanley.
