Biography

Birth

Clyde L. Goding was born at Livermore, Maine, on 25 Nov 1896, the son of Albert Goding and Hattie (Spaulding) Goding.[1] See the Research Notes below.

Marriage

Clyde L. Goding married Alice N. Behie.[1] Clyde L. Goding, chauffeur, 25, married Alice N. Behie, 28, nurse, at Framingham, Massachusetts, on 10 Apr 1918.[2] The marriage was apparently childless; there are no children shown in their household in either 1920 or 1930,[3][4] nor are there any children shown in Alice's household in 1940, after Clyde's death.[5]

World War I Service

During World War I, Clyde L. Goding registered for the draft from Livermore Falls, Maine, on 5 Jun 1918.[6] He served as a private in the United States Army from 4 Sep 1918 to 5 Dec 1918, when he was honorably discharged,[7]

Death

The gravestone of Clyde L. Goding at the Waters Hill Cemetery in Livermore, Maine, is inscribed with the dates 25 Nov 1896 and 14 Jan 1939.[8]

Research Notes

  • The 1906 Goding genealogy says that Clyde Lester Goding was born on 25 May 1896.[9] This conflicts with the 1900 Census, which says he was born in November 1896,[10] and with his gravestone, which gives his date of birth as 25 Nov 1896.[8]
  • Clyde Goding's marriage certificate says that he was born at Livermore Falls, Maine,[2] which in 1896 was a village in the town of East Livermore. His World War I draft record and service index card, however, both say that he was born at Livermore, Maine, and was a resident of East Livermore when he registered for the draft in July 1918 and when he entered the Army in September 1918.[6][7] In 1900, when he was three years old, he was living with his parents at Livermore,[10] and there is no evidence that they ever lived at Livermore Falls, so he was almost certainly born at Livermore.
