This gentleman goes back to about the 1100's his great grandfather coming over as a Lord with William the Conqueror. His name was St Leger. They obviously owned Goderville in France and so the name was passed down, and no doubt the lands. As the Goddard name according to The Goddard Association of Europe comes from France via the Vikings, it seems only feasible that the St Leger, Godard, Goderville names are connected to our present day Goddards. Living as I do now in Austrlia I have found it impossible to research any further without having to come to the UK to find out more. Is there anybody out there that can do this, research more that is, as Lord Godard of Goderville seems to disappear, but the St Leger name goes on even today, i.e. the St Leger horse race.
