I got my information from "History of Escambia Co. AL" by Annie Waters. I must say that I have found numerous mistakes in her book so I am only copying what she wrote. I don't descend from this family of Godwins so I offer no proof of the info. Wm Godwin I, said to be a Rev War soldier, received bounty in GA. He married Pheriby? They were in Conecuh Co. AL by 1820. Known children: 1. John b ca 1804 GA m Elizabeth. Lived near Pollard 2. Wm II b 8 Apr 1807 3. Thomas b 8 Apr 1807 m Mary 4. Levi b ca 1809 GA 5. Eady b ca 1810 GA m ? Hammac 6. Pheriby b 18 Aug 1812 GA d 6 Nov 1902 Esc. Co. m John GAY 7. Sabra b ca 1816 G m Ben C. Brewton s/o Joseph and Elizabeth P. (Pringle) Brewton I hope this helps Judi.
