Further Notes

A John Godfrey [?ST/3:8707 or ST/3:6350] was adm. to a pension of 10s.6d. per quarter on 26 Sep 1793, but he was reported dead at the next Pension Court on 19 Dec 1793, when his widow Martha (LBT/06136) was adm. to the Pension. Though it is probably more likely to be ST/3:6350 in that this John Godfrey's son from his baptismal record had a mother named Elizabeth. ---
