For what it's worth:
Margolis or Margulis are also, I believe, derived from magalit.
There was a famous 20th C. Ukrainian pianist named Vitaly Margulis. Jewish father, at least.
Teresa Margolles is a conceptual artist from Mexico whose artistic history is both fascinating and gruesome and is centered on the process of decaying bodies and their often violent passing .
Her name is,in comparison, not very Spanish sounding. Not conclusive.
And finally, the band leader at my Bar mitzvah in Glasgow was Harry Margolis.
100% conclusively Jewish.
