I don't know if this will help, but seeing Forward and Gould on the same
list seems to indicate a connection.

I have Elizabeth Forward marrying Edward Guy from Poole in
Carbonear Newfoundland, she died there August 13, 1885. She was born in
Carbonear.

Then I have Michael Gould born in Cloyne, County Cork, Ireland, died in
Carbonear 1898, married to Elizabeth (don't have last name) from Kilkenny,
Ireland, who died January 17, 1889.

The interesting part is that Elizabeth Forward's son Joseph Guy, married the
daughter of Michael Gould, Juliana. She was my great grandmother.

If this is the right group, let me know as I have more info on the Goulds
but not much on the Forwards.
