New Zealand

New Zealand has become home to many Gallaghers and Gallaghers have helped build and shape New Zealand to the great country it is today.

Many Gallaghers have been well served by New Zealand and many have served it well, e.g., Dave Gallaher, the first All Black captain and the family involved in the Gallagher Group.

Our organisation has also been helped along the way by New Zealander Lindel Buckley, the descendant of a Gallagher lady who left Ireland in the mid-nineteenth century. She was our first web mistress and the source of much information.

If you are one of the many people with Gallagher connections we  want to hear from you about you and your and your family’s story.

Later we intend to add a sample of these to our site but only with the express permission of those who forward their stories.
