New information on my 2nd great-grandmother Areva Revy Waggonner!

I found some new information tonight!  I found the marriage records for my 2nd great-grandmother Areva Revy Waggonner!
First, I found out that she had two marriages!  She was first married to a John Cunningham and had a daughter named Bettie.  Then, she married my 2nd great grandfather, William Thompson!  I found both of her marriage records and the 1880 census where she is listed as the wife of William Thompson and the first 6 of their children are listed as living with them!
