James Ragan, a few people above my Henry Farmer on the 1830 census. Dave -----Original Message----- From: godby-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:godby-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Spike Jones Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 1:25 PM To: godby@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [GODBY] Godby/Godbey David, I thought you would need an actual Godby male but I wasn't positive. There was a Michael & James Ragan in the 1830 Pulaski County census but none in the 1840 census. Michael was my GGGG Grandfather and James was one of his sons. Michael died in 1831 in Pulaski County.
