In the recent past I placed a query to this list about Uncle Sam. He was my great-grandfathers sisters husband. There were some concerns about questions, et. al I had about his life. At sometime in the past and just this past week two great individuals sent me information on Uncle Sam out of the Godby/Godbey Book written by some woman. Ok, Mike get on with it. In the book it states that Uncle Sam married a Laura DAY -AFTER- he married my great-great Aunt Rachel. This didn't seem plausible. I've searched the last year and more to find the answer. I learned the answer today and wish to share it with the list, as well as correct information in this book. Laura F. DAY, the daughter of George S. and Theresa DAY was born 2-18-1853 in New Orleans, LA. She married Rev. Samuel McGinnis GODBEY on 1-26-1877 (place unknown-as of yet). Laura F. (DAY) GODBEY died 2-15-1880 in Morrisville, Polk, MO. On 7-11-1881 Rev. Samuel McGinnis GODBEY married Rachel A. WINTON. So what does this mean? First, the reference materials I used are from the Missouri Archives of the United Methodist Church in Central Missouri College, Fayette, MO. Second, thought I might let everyone know who owns this book about the error. Lord knows how many mistakes I've made in my research. Third, if anyone is interested, I do have a bit more on this line.
