Lynch - One of the most important tribes of Galway, the name Lynch has a few possible origins. The first possible origin is that Lynch could be a topographical surname. This means the surname was given to someone who lived on/near a man made or natural structure. The name could also have been given to someone who lived on a hillside. This derived from the Old English word of “hlinc” - translated to “Hill”. Lynch has been linked to Norman descent - the Anglo-Norman conquest of Ireland. Crest: A lynx passant Azure (Blue).
