Dorset hearth tax assessments 1662-1664 - GOFFE/GOFF
« on: Thursday 26 October 17 15:52 BST (UK) »
I'm preparing a One Name Study of Goff and Goffe, which includes creating a map of the 1660s Hearth Tax Returns. I'd be grateful for details of Goffe and Goff entries in this 1951 book. From Hathi Trust Digital Library, I can see there are 11 entries, but no details are available. See https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt/search?id=mdp.39015016740253&view=1up&seq=7&q1=goffe. Thanks,

Phil

It seems it is not available online.  Going back about 50 years I recall a furniture shop in Poole High Street corner with Castle Street (now the Slug & Lettuce pub), owned by the Goffe family.  Gone many years ago now.
