Note :
In the early colonial records of New England ,
the term goodman is frequently used as a title of designation ,
sometimes in a respectful manner ,
to denote a person whose first name was not known ,
or when it was not desired to use that name ;
in this use it was nearly equivalent to {
Mr .}
This use was doubtless brought with the first settlers from England .
