Now a full-time genealogist and owner of his business, Mr. Galloway collects information from all available sources and uses the data to compile charts of descendants featuring notes and sources. His area of interest include families of the southeastern US and African American genealogy and also has expertise in the area of interpreting Y-chromosomal DNA evidence to support family lines based on available documentation.
"My academic training in chemistry has been a great asset in the field of genealogy. I've been able to transfer my research skills to a new career and, thanks to having a great deal of patience, diligence, and accuracy, I have found great success in the field."
Mr. Galloway's interest of science stems from his father who worked for NASA as a contractor in Brevard County, Florida in the late 1960's. Very thankful for to have learned his father's great work ethic and integrity, Mr. Galloway hopes to continue to grow and progress in the field of genealogy and to tackle projects of increasing complexity.

Recently, while living in the Village of Forest Hills in North Carolina, he organized the town archives into a coherent form eliminating duplicate documents, and transferred the images of the remaining documents to DVDs for archival storage. During his years as a chemist working for the Department of Energy research facility in Morgantown, West Virginia, Mr. Galloway developed the first analytical method to reproducibly analyze shale oil samples extracted from oil shale using colorimetry. He also carried out a study of the chemical reactions that occur in combusting oil shale samples. While associated with the Consumer Product Safety Commission, he modified the existing analytical method to improve the analysis for lead.
