Norfolk Virginian Tuesday January 22, 1889

Mr. William J. Godfrey, a member of the Pickett-Buchanan Camp of Confederate 
Veterans, died in this city on Sunday last and his remains were interred in the 
Camp's lot in Elmwood Cemetery on yesterday, the funeral being attended by a 
number of his former comrades.
Mr. Godfrey enlisted as a private in the Thirty-eighth Regiment of Virginia 
Infantry at the commencement of the war and served during the four years that 
followed with a whole-souled devotion to the "Lost Cause," and his death will be 
mourned by his many friends and comrades.
His health having been failing for some time, preparations were being made to 
send him to the Soldiers' Home, at Richmond.
