We are looking for a family connection of Col JAMES M. GADBERRY/GODBURY, who was one of the early secession 'fire eaters.' He was a tin smith, a state legislator, and a delegate to the SECESSION CONVENTION in December 1860. He signed THE S. C. ORDINANCE OF SECESSION. His sister, Miss UNKNOWN GADBERRY was married to a JOHN SMITH (!). All of these people lived in Union, Spartanburg, and Laurens Counties. They all originated somewhere in NC. Any scrap of information will be appreciated. H. Fisher
