Hi, my gr gr grandfather was John Gosa, his brother was James (Jim) Gosa, and their sister was Elizabeth (Liza) Gosa. Liza married Frank Miller the first time and had children by her. Later she married Mr. John Russell. Who were their parents? John was married and his wif died evidently in childbirth. This little girl was traded to an elderly couple inItawamba Co., Ms. This was my grandmother Mittie. She married later on, and had two daughters by William Napoleon Griffith. She left him while pregnant with the second child, my mother. The old couple that raised her, raised my mother. Please help me with these people. Thank you, Julia Martin-Welch

Yes, I know a little about him. He was supposedley my Great grandfather. I need his wifes' name. She died after fivng birth to my grandmother Mittie Lee Gosa. She was raised by an older couple. When she got old enough to marry, she married Wm. Napoleon Griffith. He lived in the Fairview Community of Fulton, Ms. Itawamba County. Afte having one daughter with him, she had taken enough abuse from his mother and she left him. She found out that she was expecting another child. This child was my mother. She went to live with the couple that had raisd her. When she had my mother, she left her with the couple and remarried a Clyde Edgil. I don't know what happened to her. They were to go up north to the steel factories. I hard that they had a son and he died of pneumonia. That is all I know. John later died in the county home on Hwy. 8 in Monroe Co., Ms. I don't know where he is buried.I have found mothers cousins and at one time I had met John sister Mary Elizabeth (Liza) who married Frank Miller.
