Sir Henry Goodere (1534–1595) was an English nobleman, the son of Francis Goodere of Polesworth Hall. The earliest records that use the Goodere name are in Poynton, Cheshire, England. The Gooderes intermarried with the noble Warren family and could claim the title 'Lord of Poynton'. The Goodere name is spelled 'Goodyear' today. The Goodyears live in Britain, Canada and the U.S. One Goodere served as London's mayor. He was the founder of "the Polesworth Circle", a private organization that influenced most of Great Britain through Shakespeare's literary works, Inigo Jones' architectural work and Michael Drayton's poetry. His society helped finance the 'Virginia adventure'.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}} He developed a cipher for Mary, Queen of Scots that was used against her during her trial and execution.
