    1. [GODBY-L] William Godbey
    2. Does anyone know where I can find documentation on the birthplace and birthdate of William Godbey of Montgomery Co., VA. William died c. 1833 MontCo. Pulaski Death Register of Francis and Benjamin list parents as William and Susanah Godbey, although various sources list William's wife as Zannah. First documented Godbey in MontCo was 1780. A note on the estate settlement of William Godbey states "A list of the property sold by Goerge and Francis Godbey, executors of William Godbey, deceased which was given to the widow who is now dead made the 28th day of November 1834." So, Susanah Godbey died between 1833 and Nov. 1834. The 1775 Tax list for Louisa County lists a Rafael Godbey living with a Charles Gunter. Next door neighbor was a William Godbey. Anyone have an idea as to who these people were? Many thanks for any help. Tom Thompson Wilmington, N. C.
