You needn't send the whole article (unless you want to), but I have a diningroom table that came down to me from the family who settled in St. Anthony in 1856. I believe it is similar to or identical with the table in the Ard Godfrey house. I thought I'd have better luck tracing Godfrey's table than mine. A cousin got down under the table recently, found no clues to its origin. I suspect both were made by a person here in St. Anthony. Shirley
