==Life==
Godwin was born on 10 October in Bath in 1785. His mother was about forty, but he was given the biblical name Benjamin because his father was 70 and a keen Baptist. His father had been married before and Benjamin had two adult siblings. His family were poor but he was sent to a Dame School until his education and upkeep was undertaken by the charity that ran the Bluecoat School in Bath〔 This school was free and included the supply of uniforms.〔(Bluecoat House ), Listing, retrieved 28 July 2014〕 When Godwin finished school he was apprenticed to a shoemaker.〔
