    3. I have a few Covey/Lee marriages in my line. I�d like to find some more information about this family. Sherman A. Covey, b. June 10, 1865 in Kirksville, Adair Co., MO, d.

The Lees, originally from NJ, were cousins to the Hunts of NJ. From a Hunt gedcom I downloaded, I found these Covey/Hunt marriages that were also in MO: Priscilla Covey, b.
