Most Comon Surname in this Range: Galloway

This is a Scottish surname with a rather interesting background. Although the name has Scottish roots, it was probably first used by individuals of English descent. The root words within the name refer to meanings like "roads" and "foreigners." These aliens may have been friends of the invading Norsemen rather than the natives of the Scottish region. The name first appears on record in Scotland during the 15th century and migrated to the United States sometime during the 17th century.
