The Godins | Pioneer Families of Shippegan
Index: Pioneer Families of Shippegan
This is a series of micro posts about the pioneers of Shippagan in Gloucester County, New Brunswick. Each post is organized around initial information from Msg. Donat Robichaud’s Le Grand Chipagan: Histoire de Shippagan, supplemented with genealogical data from F. Theriault’s Les Families de Caraquet and is now being gradually enriched with information from other sources. These are mostly French-language sources and some aren’t easily available, so if you need more information please leave your questions in a comment box below 🙂

I am great granddaughter of Francois, son of Alexandre and Anne, through his daughter Muriel Emily (GOODWIN) DOBSON. Francois moved to Saint John and changed his name to Francis John GOODWIN and worked for the Saiit John Public Works at time of his death. I am interesting in learning why he moved and changed his name and when.
