GOODWIN MILLER was born 16 Dec 1800 in Georgia, and died 22 Sep 1888 in Walton County, Georgia.

Goodwin was the son of Obediah and Elizabeth Miller.

Goodwin married SARAH GLASSON 03 Jan 1828 in Walton County, Georgia, daughter of JOHN GLASSON and ELIZABETH AWBERY.

She was born 1804 in Morgan County,Georgia, and died 1849 in Walton County, Georgia.

After Sarah's death Goodwin married NICEY ENGLISH 07 Feb 1850 in Walton County, Georgia.

They apparently divorced because she was found living with relatives and did not go to her resting place until 26 Apr 1889 in Fulton, Georgia.

Goodwin married WINIFORD GREEN 06 Oct 1868 in Walton County, Georgia.

She was born 04 Aug 1832 in Georgia, and is resting beside Goodwin in Walton County,Georgia.

I think it is correct to assume that Winiford went to her rest before Goodwin because he does not mention her in his will. I do notice that his will was made after Nicey had apparently left the household.
