Karen,
Yes, I remember you and am so glad to hear from you! I think I had said in my message that I had lost ALL of my Godden research in a computer crash, so I am basically back to square one although Nigel Godden and a few others have been so kind as to forward what they have on my Goddens.
That is the biggest mystery for me: Who was Lillian Godden??? I haven't been able to find a thing on her at all, so I too was assuming she must be a nickname for another Godden daughter's name. I have been trying to get a hold of a Ron Wood who is the caretaker for the cemetary that the Goddens are buried in in Groveland, Massachusetts since after Hubert Langley, Lillian Godden married a Wood from his family. I was hoping maybe he knew something about Lillian and her family, but I haven't had much luck tracking him down. When the weather gets nicer, I'll venture up to Groveland and see if I can find him!
I would absolutely love anything you may have on this branch of the Goddens, and thank you for your offer. Feel free to e-mail me at the address listed in my profile.
Again, great to hear from you!
Sincerely,
Janice Roberts
