GODBEY, JENNINGS -
I am researching my family and my great grandfather John Godbey was shot and killed in Nov
1933 by a man named John Jennings. They both lived in Raleigh Co but the trial was moved
to Princeton ... I am not sure when the trial took place but I know it lasted 2 days and John
Jennings was found not guilty ... I was wondering if anyone could help me to find
newspaper story on it? I live in RI and any help would be much appreciated. Thanks so much,
