Geoffrey Lynch (Mayor), aka Geffere Lynch, 4th Mayor of Galway, fl. 1488-1489. Lynch was a member of one of The Tribes of Galway, and during his term of office he oversaw the introduction of the Dominican Order into Galway from Athenry. They were given a site overlooking The Claddagh, on the west bank of the river Corrib. Lynch is said to have been knighted. He was married to a daughter of Walter Font and had at least one child, Anastasia Lynch. He may be the ''Geffere Lynch'' who was elected Mayor in 1500. ==References== * ''History of Galway'', James Hardiman, Galway, 1820. * ''Old Galway'', Maureen Donovan O'Sullivan, 1942. * ''The Tribes of Galway'', Adrian James Martyn, Galway, 2001. * Henry, William (2002).
