Early records reveal that this surname originated in Scottland. Etymology may be defined as the history of a word, revealed through the analysis of its parts, and by tracing its roots to past times and even to foreign languages. Such a study is of particular interest when applied to a name. This name was derived from the habitation name of a place near Melrose in the former county of Roxburgh, Mackeswell, which meant "spring, stream".
