That's still the case if Vigilanxe is derived from vigil. Just because your the grasson of your grandfather, it doesn't nean your not the son of you father.

But yeah Vigikance grouos in the wild west would round up suspect law breakers, and kill them without and authority from the US government (like what some vigillantes do). So yeah Vigilante is more directly associated With the vigilant groups of America's wild west then the word vigil itself.
