| About the Book
Much has been written about Englishman, John Godbold, who appeared in
South Carolina in the early 1730s. However, very little documentation
of his life has been presented. 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 documented version of Old
John's story. Part two is a five generation family tree of Old John's
descendants with information about their lives from census records,
wills, court records, etc. |
