Hello Phil, are any of your ancestors American Gowards? So difficult finding any information. Looking for Gowards perhaps originally French, I have found a French spelling: Gouvard and perhaps a Huguenot. My grandfather, Walter Goward, was born about 1907 and had about five brothers, also, Walter was a teamster in Detroit, but that is another interesting story.
Any information would be greatly appreciated, please feel free to email me at
