There's a question about the speed of galaxy formation versus the life and death of the very large (we think) earliest stars. There may never have been such a galaxy because some Pop III stars had died and enriched the medium before any galaxies formed. I don't know either way,

I have heard that James Webb will see the first stars that our universe produced. Can I assume that we may see galaxies that are so young that all of the stars in them are population III?
