Gosh...I'm really sorry.I must have deleted the notification of your response without reading it.I too am stuck with John.While I have done much searching, I've looked to the census' for clues.On the 1880 census he reports his parents were born in TN, however given his birth year it could have also been NC since that area was originally part of NC.There's a Tom Godfrey family living next door on the 1840 census, but they don't appear on the 1850 census.I was thinking that could have been a brother.A lot of people during this time to went back and forth between Sevier and Blount Counties.Another key could be Lucinda's father, Steven.I haven't tried to find him yet on earlier census'.As you are probably aware during these times marriages were often between neighbors.Sorry not much help yet...Deb
