Williamstown, a substantial village and is situated half way
between Dunmore and Ballymoe in North Galway. Few other
places will boast of such a strange beginning because it was
founded in the last century by William McDermott, a local
landlord, just to spite a rival who tried to establish
another town close by! All is quiet in Williamstown now, as
the era of the landlord is long over, and the other town
failed to survive.
