My daughter is reading a book at school called January conspiracy theory 365. Her teacher ask them to find out what G'managh means.
I tried to find something on the net but could not find anything, so I thought maybe somebody in the community might know.

Thanks.

P.S I didn't know where else to post this question.

I just googled it. A passage from the book she is reading came up. It is a contraction of Graignamanagh, a location on a map. There is a paragraph which gives the full spelling followed by the use of the contraction thereafter. It shows up on page 100.

I was figuring it was something in Gaelic.


I have a Tactical Harness and I have a Tool Belt. The Tool Belt is more Useful.

Taking it one step further....

"The town name comes from the Irish words 'Graig-na-managh' meaning the grange or church of the monks."
