The only non-Galilean was Judas Iscariot. The name i"Iscariot" in Hebrew is "Ish Kerioth" meaning "man of Kerioth," a town in the tribe of Judah south of Jerusalem. He was probably the best-educated of all the disciples. His first hame "Judas" is the Greek form of "Judah". [make of that as you will']
Eleven of the twelve Disciples knew Jesus personally either because they were relatives, via friends, through fellow fishermen, or through the healing of their father.
- Peter/Simon was a fisherman and a close friend of James and John
- Andrew was a close friend of James and John
- James and John were the son of Zebedee and cousins of Jesus..
- James [James the Less} the Son of Alphaeus was a cousin of Jesus
- Matthew aka Levi was son of Alphaeus, and was Jesus'uncle Alphaeus
- Simon the Zealot was either a cousin of Jesus or His half-brother.
- Philip was a fisherman and knew Jesus through his fellow fishermen and friends Andrew, James & John
- Bartholomew knew Jesus through close friendship with Philip and likely Peter and Andrew
- Thomas Didymus ["Doubting Thomas"] don't know how he heard of Jesus.
- Judas Iscariot knew Jesus because his father [Simon the leper] was healed of leprosy
Of all the disciples, Thomas Didymus ["Doubting Thomas"] is the ONLY disciple which we don't know how he heard of Jesus.
