Emails and Census records are driving me toward the Willis name. I could still be wrong however since I have yet found any information for John M Goodman's father believed to be George Willis. George is said to have died in the Civil War before John was born. Due to a family feud (differing political views) John took his mother's maiden name Goodman. As for Mrs. Goodman I have two names Marier or Mariah and I'm still searching. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
