Regarding the birthdate of Godfrey Ridge of Mississippi - I ordered a copy of the Soldier's Application for Pension from Tennessee (He filed for this at a time when he was living with a son) ... He states on this application that he was born in Lawrence County, South Carolina in 1815 "to the best of my recallection". He also states that his family consists of wife - age 66 y/o, children are ages 34, 32, 30, 28, 26, 23, 21, and 19. (4 males and 4 females). I only knew of 3 boys - Robert, Joseph, and Benjamin Harvey. This application is dated October 24, 1901...Godfrey would have been 86 at the time he applied for this pension. Anyone know who the other son was? Thanks Shirley Ridge Notify Administrator about this message?
