GOODRICK OF BOLINGBROKE AND SUFFOLK.
JOHN GOODRYKE of Bolingbroke co. Lincoln, is the first of the family from ‘whom an unbroken descent can be recorded in authentic documents. He lived In ‘the reign of Henry VI and died In 1493, being succeeded in his landed estate at Bolingbroke by his second son Richard. This Richard is ancestor of the Goodrick’s of Suffolk, whose genealogy, so far as I have been able to trace it, will follow.
RICHARD GOODRYKE was a “merchant of the Staple,” and died in 1508 His will,
dated September 1508, was proved in London, 17th November following by his widow, Alice, who was daughter of John Etton, of Firsby, co. Lincoln. By her he had issue
1. Richard, of London, his successor.
2. John, a merchant of the Staple at Calais, who died unmarried. His will, dated 11th May, 1540, was proved in London 5th June in the same year. He names his brother Richard; “my Lord of Ely," his cousin and Edward Goodrick of Bolingbroke.
