Thread: GODDING/GODWIN/GODDEN

Need some help from you kind people. I am researching my ancestors on my mothers’ side.



Grandfather: William GODDING born 22 July 1884 d 1943

Grandmother: Daisy CLEALL 8 June 1889

GGrandfather: Thomas GODWIN 18 March 1859(birth cert)

GGrandmother: Eliza Ann GARDNER 1856

GGGrandfather: John GODWIN 1829

GGGrandmother: Hannah RICHINGS 1833



Any further information would be greatly appreciated. Especially the 1861 census which would show Thomas GODWIN family. Gets confusing trying to find GODDING/GODDEN/GODWIN etc. They were all born in Berkshire, Kingston Lisle area. William was born in Netherton, Fyfield, Berkshire. William I believe had siblings Harry, Edith M, Thomas (Jack), Elizabeth A, Albert, Edward and Percy.

Thanks, Gary in Canada
