Forget what I said. We´re looking for Goddard, not Godwin.
Put it down to a senior moment, couple with over excitement.
Doesn´t do at my age.
Sorry. :-(

There is probably no connection here, but the name Godwin caught my eye on the incoming passenger lists.
April 1916 SS Arabia from Bombay.
Marie Godwin-Canning Actress aged 26 .b India
Leslie Ernest Godwin-Canning b abt 1907 India (presumably her son)
Unfortunately there is no other info.

Yep, right family Vicci. Thank you for offering those SP credits.

If anyone does have any spare, it may be worthwhile sending a pm to FBG and asking what she is looking for next. Don't ask me, I'm like a chocolate fireguard at times! :-D


My Fenwick-G contact on FB is asking around his family to see if anyone knows anything. We can but hope. :-D


Continued thanks to everyone trying to help. If we ever get to the bottom of this puzzle, I think we should all meet up and have a party - at Evelyn's (never been to Jersey) :-D ;-) :-D ;-) <3
