Thanks Jerry, it makes more sense now. I have looked at all of the maps and have been able to place the family farm, the Aunts and Uncles (Great, GG, GGG and GGGG)for my Goodwins and collateral lines. Would be interested in the Murray marriages. George was the middle name for several of them. Last night after getting the census info placed in my program, I decided to try the sons SSI and located one in Jackson Parish. I went to Genweb and looked at the cemetery records. On the third try I located, the parents and one son and possible wife. I then tried "411, White Pages" and found a "Jr" in Jackson Parish. I have already written my letter. This is exciting, I have almost given up on this family and it seems about once a year I locate another tiny piece to this family. See, it keeps paying to go back and check over and over. Took 30 years to find my fathers family. I have 22 to go on this one. again thanx, Ley K O'Connor
