The Cork Gallwey/Galway family may be of Hiberno-Danish descent like the Cotters and Coppingers. They are remarkable for their survival skills appearing in Cork records from the 13th century and after many changes in religon, wealth are still prevalent not only in Ireland but in branches in France, Spain, Portugal, the West Indies and as well as the usual areas of Irish Emigration.

John Galwey of Lota `bred to the law and very eminent in his profession’ was admitted to Gray’s Inn 16 May 1668 and subsequently called to the Bar in Ireland.166 He was M.P. for Cork City in the Parliament of 1689 and a J.P. for the county and city, and was appointed a Commissioner for applotting tax for Co. Cork under King James II’s commission 10 April 1690. For his adherence to the Jacobite cause he was outlawed in 1690 and his estates forfeited. I have already related how his outlawry came to be reversed (17 June 1693), how he received a Royal Pardon (1 Aug. 1695), and how he got in and out of trouble with the Irish House of Commons in 1707 for taking young James Cotter to England. He brought three claims before the Chichester House Commissioners in 1700, of which two were successful.167 His will, dated 7 Feb. 1711, was proved 17 Feb. 1712/13.
