GODLIF or GODLEY (FRANCIS), stationer and bookbinder in London, 1562-96; At the West end of St. Paul's. The earliest reference to this bookseller in the Registers is the entry to him of a ballad called A Description of a monstrous child, during the year ending July 24th, 1562. It was printed for him by Leonard Askell { ASKELL, Leonard ‹ LBT 08270 › }, and is reprinted in Mr. Huth's Ancient Ballads and Broadsides, p. 299, ed. 1867 [Arber, i. 181]. Godlif or Godley was admitted a freeman of the Company of Stationers on January 20th, 1561/2. In the following year he married {- name not known GODLIF, (Unknown) ‹ LBT 30679 › }, and an entry in the Wardens' accounts includes a sum of five shillings for the hire of the Hall on that occasion [Arber, i. 186, 218]. In the year ending July 22nd, 1565, he was fined for binding primers "unjustly and contrary to orders." In 1566-7 he appears to have been working as a bookbinder in Chester, and his name ("Godlof") is mentioned in the Registers of the Chester Stationers' Company. Later on he brought an action against the Company to uphold his right to bind books in vellum, and in the year ending July 9th, 1577, the Company paid him 40s. to "surcease his sute" [Arber, i. 475]. In 1582 he is found borrowing £3 13s. 4d. from the Company. He repaid it the following year; but shortly afterwards a larger loan was granted to him which was not repaid until 1591 [Arber, i. 494, 497].
