Glenn, That's great that you found that. I looked for such a marriage but did not find it because of the mis spelled name. I have my own database on my hard drive, the on line Illinois Marriage database, and the Harriet Vaught Book, all three places have Loucinda McGehee married Benjamine F. Vincent. I even searched my database for Lucinda, but of course it didn't come up. The likely hood is very high that Lucinda McGhee Vinson was the sister of Zarah (Zachariah) McGhee, which is what I suspected because both born in Tennessee. Now to find the proof. Have a good time. I will look a little deeper also.
