Denise and others, My notes saying that Annie Jane Corbin Youngblood had a child named Goff came from a chart I received from a direct descendant of Elizabeth Leona Faircloth Youngblood 1879-1945 and George Allen Youngblood 1869-1942. They are her great grandparents. Perhaps I have interpreted her chart incorrectly...you certainly could be right about Goff children being born later? Have not had time to research this further. I will be glad to post the names and dates of the ten children of the above couple at a later time, as given by Maye Youngblood Prevatt, one of the ten. Very busy getting ready for a daughter's wedding. Sorry if I caused confusion.
