Dalgety History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms

A family in the Pictish tribe of ancient SCOTLAND was the first to use the name Dalgety. They lived in the parish of Dalgetty in Fife and from the lands of the same name in Aberdeenshire.

The surname Dalgety was first found in Aberdeenshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Obar Dheathain), a historic county, and present day Council Area of Aberdeen, located in the Grampian region of northeastern Scotland, where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.

Dalgety Spelling Variations

In medieval Scotland names were more often spelled according to sound than any regular set of rules. An enormous number of spelling variations were the result. Over the years, the name Dalgety has been spelled Dalgetty, Getty, Dalgety, Dalketty, Dalgaty and many more.
