History

James Mason Godard, and his son of the same name, came to Quebec as wine merchants and brewers early in the nineteenth century. The younger James Mason Godard (1779-1858) had six children. His daughter Georgina (1812-1901) married Charles Reiffenstein (1817-1902) in 1840. Morris Godard married Christiana Cameron, sister of Hector Cameron. Henrietta (Henny) Selwyn Godard remained unmarried. Hannah (b. 1786) sister of James Godard, married John Thomas Caddy. Their son, John Herbert Caddy (1801-1883) became an artist of some note.

Georgina and George Charles Reiffenstein had six children: John George William (1841-1877); Miriam Clara Dunn (1844- ) married James Pennington Macpherson; Georgina (spelling varies) Caroline (1845-1918), known as Carrie; Rhoda Julia Henriette (1848-1904) known as Julia; Charles Edward (1849-1930) and James Henry (1869-1945).
