Good Morning... Back in October, Irene (MMassey430@aol.com) wrote about the Vilator Dyess (Caldwell Parish) who married James Goodson. I am going thru my old email and I have the following information Which comes from Pamela Karen Veuleman Trammell's book (Pages 175-176) This particular person is from the brother: Christopher DYESS VIOLATOR DYESS, born 1824 in MS. She married James Goodson. She is the daughter of Christopher DYESS (he names her after his mother). Viloator DYESS Goodson names a son Christopher Dyess Goodson Children of James and Viloator (Dyess) Goodson were: Thehsey Goodson, born 4 Nov 1847 in TX John Goodson, born 1849 in TX Elizabeth Goodson, born 1852 in TX Thomas Goodson, born 1858 in TX Christopher Dyess Goodson, Born 2 Marh 1860 in TX Martha Goodson, born 20 Oct 1862 in TX James Goodson, Born 1867 in TX Hope this helps....
