Ruth Crawley Champion's book doesn't list "Washington Champion", alas,
but
she does have an Abigail Godfrey. And, glory be, there on page 52 is your
GEORGE WASHINGTON CHAMPION, who married ABIGAIL G BUDD.
George Washington Champion is s/o Nathaniel Champion & Temperance Scull. GW
was born 22 Jan 1806 and d 22 Aug 1894. M. to Abigail G Budd 1 Mar 1834.
Abigail is d/o John Budd and Abigail Godfrey and was b 2 May 1816, d 27
Aug1888. Ch:
Julia Champion 1840-1874 m. Philip Wheaton 1830-1902.
Abigail B Champion b 1842 m Joseph Dorset. Ch: Joseph Jr.
Andrew Smith Champion 1848-1926 m. Emily Webster 1848-
ch Fred
John Budd Champion 1851-1913 m. Mary Jane Chester 1875-1919.
GW's lineage goes Thomas - John - Thomas - John - Nathaniel - Nathaniel. I
think that means you are a closer cousin to me than MMurphy. I'll have to
re-read your message to see where we branch off.
