ArchivesRe: history of this last name
in reply to a message by Sondra Galavis
I've seen the "Gall-" or "Gal-" mean a number of things ...in Italian, it can mean "rooster" ...
It could also be related to the term "Gaul" as in the early Celtic people of Western Europe. I've seen various derivatives for that term as well. One I recall was "milky" ...referring presumably to a whitish colour.
