She lived with her sister first name unknown that was married to a Magness first name unknown. If you have any information on the Godfrey's I would appreciate it. All I know is that my great grandmother's name was Harriet E Godfrey Kelley. I would love to find more about her family. Thank you for any help. Sarah Barker Cotton
