Does anyone know where Ard Godfrey, mgr. of Franklin Steele's sawmill, came from in Maine? Shirley

Shirley, According to an article in the Hennepin County History Magazine, (Spring and Summer 1977) , the only living grandchild at that time, Mrs. Marguerite J. Palen of Edina MN., stated Ard Godfrey was the son of Ard and Catherine Godfrey who migrated from England to the town of Orono, Maine around the beginning of the 19th Century. Ard Jr. was born there on January 18, 1813. If you'd like, I'd be happy to copy this article and send it to you, which is quite long and is about the restoration of the Godfrey home with pictures. One very nice one of Ard and Harriet and their 5 daughters.
