I am a descendent of Mary Ellen Godbey 1849-1885, born and died in Pulaski Co, KY, who was married to John W. Jones. I believe her father was William Godbey 1800-1887. The line is a little foggy from there because of all the repeating names! Does anyone have any information from this line? Also, does anyone have any information before Thomas Godby 1587 line? My name is Sandy LaRue, from Louisville, KY. My grandparents were Ruth Jones (Mounce) and Sam Mounce of Burnside, KY (both deceased). My email address is: sunneesmyle@gmail.com. Thank you for any assistance!

I am not a researcher, but have enjoyed learning what other researchers have discovered about our family. One point on which I have seen no discussion is the discrepancy of the Muster date of arrival (1608) and the date of the arrival of the 3rd Supply mission (1610) on which we know Godby to have been a passenger. (And more than a passenger, bless him, he and his fellow passengers had to build two new boats in order to continue their journey!) I have not seen his name in the list of passengers on the first or second supply missions, only in the third supply mission. I believe the muster record must be incorrect. Godby sailed on the Sea Venture which wrecked on Bermuda where two new ships were built, the Deliverance and the Patience. It was this ship Deliverance arriving in 1610 on which Godby was a passenger. Are my facts correct?
