[coosa1.ged]
After the death of Georgianna M. A. Spradley, Asa Goodwin married her
sister, Mary Elizabeth Spradley. This information was copied from the
family bible of Josephine Stewart Goodwin by Jesse Green Phillips,
husband of Edna Irene Goodwin. Edna was the granddaughter of Asa and
Georgina Spradley Goodwin. The bible was last known to be in the
possession of Daryl Clay Goodwin Groce Dale, deceased. Her children
Walter Eugene Groce, Jr. and Judy Groce Konos live in New Orleans, La.
Date of birth on death certificate differs from information that was
copied from bible records. Death certificate shows birth date of 18
February 1853. I believe bible date would be correct in that it was
recorded at date of actual birth.
