About Dwyane
Dwayne, a Welsh name, means "descendant of Dubhán, little dark one." Dubhán was the founder of the church of Killooaun or Cill Dhubháin, "the church of Dubhán," in Ballymacward, County Galway.
The church, now in ruins, was once the heart of a medieval vicarage and may have belonged to a later period than that of Killamude. Despite the limited information available, Dubhán appears to have been an influential cleric among the Soghain during the early Irish Christian era.
