Godfrey (/ˈɡɒdfreɪ/ GOD-fray) is an unincorporated community in Morgan County, in the U.S. state of Georgia.
History
The community was named after Dr. Ervine Godrey, a pioneer settler. A post office called Godfrey was established in 1889, and remained in operation until 1965. The Georgia General Assembly incorporated the place as the "Town of Godfrey" in 1906. The town's charter was dissolved in 1995.
