Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Journal of the Royal Institution of Cornwall, 1895-6-7-8, Vol. 13
The name, Godolphin, has given rise to much difference of op inion as to its origin and meaning. It bears little resemblance either in sound or appearance to a Cornish word, and has prob ably undergone much modification from its original form. Whatever that was, it seems to have been a Cornish territorial name before it became a family one. But its origin either as a place or a family name is involved in much obscurity.
