I found this on TNA:
Reference:
WO 119/33/184
Description:
ROBERT GAWLEY alias ROBERT GALLEY; ROBERT GALLY.
Born KILLEAD, Antrim.
Served in Londonderry Militia; 8th Royal Veteran Battalion.
Discharged aged 41.
Covering dates give year of enlistment to year of discharge.
Kilmainham Reference: A9687.
Date: 1806-1821
I looked at the papers on FMP but there is nothing to confirm whether or not he was the father of my John Galway. But I will have to try searching everywhere for Galley and Gally now as I didn't know about those variants of the surname before.
