Hi
I hoping that a look up can be carried out for Walworth St, Ardwick. I hoping to find a Frederica Godson there, and maybe some other Godson's too, perhapss Charles and Mary.
With thanks

I can't see a Walworth St. Do you have any other info??

Hi Skippy
I'm afraid that's all the information I have.
It's the address given on the death certificate for Frederica Godson, who died aged 75 in November 1841. Her son, Charles, registered the death and it is definitely Walworth Street, Ardwick.
Many thanks for your trouble. If I get any further information in the future I'll post it, but I can't think of anything at the moment.

I've been researching all Godson families for many years and I would be interested to know what other information you have about Frederica, Charles etc. Have a look at www.godsonfamily.com and get in touch.

Hi Celia
I've had a look at the website. It seems to be based on a Godson Gedcom file that Lisa in Stafford sent me a couple of years ago. I'm afraid I've spotted some errors in it as they affect my line eg the Charles I referred to died in 1845, yet is shown to have a daughter born in 1847! And his second wife Mary Walker didn't die straightaway, she remarried - to Henry Brown - and had 2 further children Charlotte and Walker, although she doesn't seem to have lived much longer than the birth of her youngest.
I am descended from Charlotte Godson and John Bradbury who are on in the file. They had two children: John and Frank (1895). Frank married May Steele, and they had 4 children: Frank 1922, John Roy 1925, Hilda 1928 and Norman 1936-1979. Norman married Patricia White, and I was born! I do have a photograph of Charlotte - and John, though not together.
The file doesn't seem to have Charlotte's brothers and sisters quite right. I emailed Elliot Godson via the website with a little of the information I have, but I haven't heard anything yet. I do have some further information about Charles' first family with Ann Barlow that isn't in the file.
