Last Name GALILEESummary/Contribute |
| Meaning | Local: Of the galilee, a surname of exceptional interest which has barely survived. The galilee of cathedrals is founded on the phrase, 'Galilee of the Gentiles.' It was a porch or chapel attached to a church and used as a penitentiary, and even as a mortuary. A galilee exists at Lincoln, Ely, and Durham cathedrals. At times they seem to have been set apart for women, who were restricted within certain limits. Galley is a corruption. Probably the founder was verger of the galilee, or dwelt under the shadow. | |
