My name is Maxwell Irving Gathings, Jr, son of Maxwell Irving Gathings,Sr., son of Irving Benjamin Gathings, son of Benjamin Covington Coulter Gathings, son of James Jackson Gathings, son of James Gathings and Jane Jackson. I'd sure like to find the connection if there is one. By the way my son's name is Benjamin Gathings named after his great grandfather.
