Son of Moody Galloway and Mamie Thomas. Wife of Fannie Odom; Married July 12, 1919. To this marriage 7 children were born.

According to a granddaughter, "His original name was Gordie Durwood Galloway. He changed it to George D. then later changed the D. to B. No one knew what the "B" stood for. Only what he told us in jest: which was it means 'B is for Bull'." Furthermore, his son Steve had "his middle name spelled differently... Derwood... instead of Durwood."
