THE HUNT FOR OLD JOHN GODBOLD

Volume I, Parts One and Two

Compiled and edited by Edward L. Godbold, Sr. with the help of NUMEROUS others.

 

Much has been written about Englishman, John Godbold, who first appeared in South Carolina about 1725.  However, very little documentation of his life has been presented.  Part One of  this book reviews information about him from seven published sources, explores historical events and South Carolina political jurisdictions necessary for an understanding of the times in which he lived and presents a new version of Old John’s story.

Part Two is a family tree of the first five generations of Old John’s descendants with information about their lives from census records, wills, court records, family lore, etc.

 

Some names indexed other than GODBOLD include: BETHEA, BLUE, BROWN, BUTLER, BRYNE, CLOY, CUPIT, DAVIS, ELLERBE, ENGLISH, EVANS, FLEEMAN, FOXWORTH, GIBSON, HASELDEN, HUNT, JONES, KNAPP, MCREE, SMITH, STANLEY, TARVER, THOMAS, WALKER, WATTS, WRIGHT and hundreds of others.
