CALIFORNIA WHITFIELD NAME VARIATIONS Respuesta a Pregunta 121 - 13 September 2009 I am the author of The Morning Side of Mount Diablo. In my chapter "Californio Sketches," I try to make some sense of the Goodfield history in Calif. The earliest probable mention of the name in Calif. was in Agustin del Carmen Vidful's marriage listed in the Mission Santa Clara marriages 19 June 1825. According to this record Agustin came to Alta California from his birthplace, Norfolk, Virg. When his son married, also at the same mission, his surname was spelled Guitful. Later versions of the name in various records were Whitfield, Guttifield, Goodfield, Gutiful, Gootefield and Guilifil. As things settled down and the family became literate, the two lasting versions became Whitfield and finally, Goodfield.
