Hi,

I am on the trail of Henry B. Goodwin and Jane Billups Goodwin. I
think I have located the third child, Harrison Goodwin. I am wondering if you
have any access to any marriage books in Johnson county, and could see if there is
indeed a marriage between Julia P Stafford and Henry Harrison Goodwin. Or if you
have any idea where I might locate the marriage of this Julia Stafford. Her family looks as if they moved from Louisa, Lawrence county, Ky to Paintsville or vice versa,

Harrison the youngest child of Henry B Goodwin and Jane Billups Goodwin.



Charles A Goodwin of Lawrence County Ky to Milton Freese of Boyd County KY
deed book H page 55 January 12, 1866. Personal Property Griffeth Creek.
Mentioned H H Goodwin and C A Goodwin
. This was a 15 year lease from Henry Williams.
. Then
I stumbled on a census looking for Henry B Goodwin that refered to a Henry H
Goodwin and his wife Julia P Goodwin both born in Ky in 1844 , Henry H
Goodwin had census info saying both of his parents were born in VA.

They were in Prairie, Jackson county, Mo. In searching some marriage
records in Jackson county, Missouri records I located not only one of the sons of
this Henry but a son of Charles A Goodwin. So I tracked down the obit for
Arthur Goodwin, son of Henry and Julia Goodiwn. It mentioned a sister Bertha
Scott . I located that sister in the California death index and it mentioned her
mothers maiden name, Julia Stafford. This led me right back to Louisa,
Lawrence county, Ky. Julia Stafford is the daughter of Williams Stafford in the same
census that Jane Goodwin and Harrison Goodwin are in. It has to be him!!!
I am trying to locate something from Lees Summit Mo to prove this is my H. H
Goodwin, aka Henry Harrison Goodwin, aka Harrison Goodwin. This is what I
have locate so far::

It appears Henry H Goodwin died after the 1900 census, and Julia died after
