Notes

• ... the only reference to the existence of Richard Sr (that I know of) is one line from the genealogy of Thomas Jones, compiled by Claude Barlow: "Hannah [Jones]…. m 20 Nov 1666 Richard Goodwin b … about 1640, son of Richard Goodwin." But, if Barlow used John Goodwin’s genealogy as his source, then there really isn’t any evidence that Richard Sr existed. Certainly Richard Jr must have had biological parents, but his father may not have been named Richard and may never have come to America. ... http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.goodwin/3337/mb.ashx
