The Goodwin Genealogy in Ancient England


The Goodwin Genealogy, thanks to John Hayes Goodwin, begins with several pages copied from his Genealogy of Daniel Goodwin of Ancient Kittery, Maine and his descendants. Also I have copied those who fall in my direct line of descent as John has given me much more information than I was able to obtain in my search for my ancestors. By George F. Goodwin.
