Galway 1 and Galway 2

At first glance, the name Galway – Gaillimh in Irish – seems to have a straightforward meaning. For the ancient Irish and other Celtic peoples, all foreigners were known as Galls (Gauls), and thus prefixes or suffixes involving gall, in one form or another, generally reflect the presence of foreign settlers.  Most owners, including the current ones, can trace their roots to Ireland.  This heritage combined with the golf course setting continues the Irish tradition at Connemara.
