William Clyde Gooch

Note About Ancestors

There seems to be a lot of history available for this family, especially the Bumpass line. My recommendation is to start at his mother's findagrave.com link. Since I am related to William's wife's brother, I will not be pursuing his ancestral line any further. :)
