John Bodkin fitz Dominick

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Bodkin fitz Dominick was the mayor of Galway from 1638 to 1640.

A son of Dominick Bodkin, he was elected in August 1638. During his term, the town corporation provided finance for the construction of a new market-house. He was the last of the Bodkin mayors of Galway, though a descendant of the Bodkin family, Martin Quinn, was mayor for 2000-2001.
