NOTE: Barbara Murray, who has researched this area, has confirmed that Private A Galway of Tannaghlane is Private Andrew Gawley. There is a reference to this information coming from the War Memorial in Minterburn Church. The Presbyterian Roll of Honour incorrectly records the name as Andrew Galway. It should be Andrew Gawley. As a result we have merged A Galway with Andrew Gawley in the database. Private A Galway is therefore removed from the list. |
