Robert was born circa 1833; Elizabeth was born in 1837. 1807 It is doubtful the the Stephen Goodman who married an Elizabeth Jones in Hardin County, KY in 1807 is our Stephen Goodman (or if it is , then this is probably a different wife because Elizabeth was supposedly born about 1800 and would have only been 7 years old at the time of marriage). Another reason is that his wife was known by the name of Elizabeth Searcy. Stephen Goodman is not listed in the Grayson County Census records for the following years: 1810-1840, 1850, 1860, nor 1870.
