Charlotte Rhoda Goddard (1792-1881) was an Ives until she married William Giles Goddard (1794-1846). She had a daughter Charlotte Hope (1823-1866) who married William Binney. She had several other daughters and sons, one of whom was Robert H I Goddard and there have been four generations of R. H. I. Goddards since then. Prior to that the name Robert Hale Ives was in the Ives family and the Goddards have kept up their naming traditions to this day. Well, I haven't checked up on the youngest ones. I have done a study of the Ives and Goddard families and can help with the generations, but not their help. Knowing which Charlotte and RHI and when will help in your search, however. Fred
