There are the following Goode's in my family tree: Ellender, Hiram, John S., Louise, Nancy Ann, Thomas and Timothy. Nancy Ann was my 2nd great-grandmother and m. Addison Minor. They were from the Casey Co.-Lincoln Co. area. Any connections here? Regards, Arthur L. Lutes SHARAMICK@aol.com wrote: > I am new to this genealogy thing, and wow, it's addictive.
