I'm going to try and refresh my recollection and defer to the experts if I misstep. I started a thread about Goudey a few years ago. It was shown on another website that a descendant of the card company founders pronounced it "Gowdy", the Americanized way that I have pronounced it since the 70's. However, the correct French pronunciation is probably "Goo-deh". I always called Larry Lajoie..."La-joy" like the NASCAR driver, and was told that I should say La-shoo-wey. I thought Bowman was settled at Bowman, but I'm here to learn.
