Hi, I am looking for more information on Thomas Going. He purchased land from my ancestor, Nathan Godwin in 1828 in Randolph Co., NC. I was wondering if there were any relations or marriages between these two families. My Nathan Godwin sold your Thomas Goings 240 acres, however, Nathan had 20 acres left over and I'm trying to figure out what happened to those other 20 acres. Let me know if you would like a copy of the deed. Genealogy by Ginger's Blog

The Confederate service record for A.J. Goings (available at fold3.com) contains 18 index cards. A.J. Goings aka Andrew J. Goins was a 26yo farmer, 5'8" tall, born Randolph Co, NC when he enlisted 27 Mar 1862 at Asheboro, mustering into service with B Co 52nd NC 28 Apr 1862 at Camp Mangum [Wake Co NC] for 3 years or the duration of the war. On the May/Jun 1862 muster roll he is marked absent without leave / deserter, but he is present for Aug 1863, with a note that he is owed his [enlistment] bounty. The Sep/Oct muster notes that he was absent when the bounties were paid, and that his salary was last paid 6/30 (year not stated); at this date, he is still a private. A roll dated 08 Jan 1864 (for Dec?) notes that he was last paid 31 Oct 1863 and was then on "furlough of indulgence." From this date he is listed with the rank of 3rd Corporal. He is present without remark Jan/Feb 1864.
ReplyDeleteFor the Jul/Aug 1864 muster he is "absent wounded." A register for the "Receiving and Wayside Hospital" of Richmond VA marks him admitted 22 Aug 1864, and sent to the Camp Winder Hospital (Richmond, VA) the nextd day. A receipt at Camp Winder shows he received clothing there 29 Aug 1864 (as A.J. Ganes or Gaines); on 03 Sep 1864 he was recorded on furlough at the hospital and destined for Thomasville [Davidson Co] NC.
Other rolls show him present Jul-Oct and Nov/Dec 1864. Finally, he is named on the list of prisoners of war paroled at Appamottox Courthouse 09 Apr 1865.
North Carolina has digitized a record for Zilpha from 31 Mar 1914 which she filed in Guilford County NC; today High Point stretches across Guilford's borders into Randolph County, perhaps she was uncertain which jurisdiction she lived in.

On 25 Oct 1896, 73yo Daniel Goins of Cedar Falls [Randolph Co NC], white, married 19yo Della L Pritchard of Randolph Co NC, white, by J.P. A.P. Luck at Giles Chapel. The license was issued the day before. The bondsmen and witnesses were D.B. Julian, M.C. Luck, and W.J.M. Bride. (Ancestry.com. North Carolina, Marriage Records, 1741-2011)
In 1900, family members including Della continue to appear in Randolph county, but Daniel is listed in Alamance County, where in 1901 he applies for the pension for his Confederate service. In 1907, as Pvt. William D. Goins of I Co 2nd NC Cav, he was interred at the Confederate burial ground at Oakwood Cemetery, Raleigh, Wake Co NC.
Della continued to reside in Randolph, where in 1925 she applied for her widow's pension (at the age of 48).

The Compiled Service Records at Fold3 show Pvt. Nelson Gowen alias Goin in Company F of the 2nd North Carolina Battalion, which was recruited in Randolph Co NC. He enrolled either 30 Nov or 04 Dec 1861 at Asheboro, Randolph Co NC, volunteering at the age of 21. He was absent with leave at the 07 Jan 1862 muster. A note indicates that his unit was captured at Roanoke Island 08 Feb 1862 (the second day of the Battle of Roanoke), but he must have avoided that, as he was hospitalized in Wilmington NC from 01-13 Feb 1862 with typhoid fever. He is then present on rolls from 28 Feb-31 Oct 1862 – Apr 1864, during which the 2nd fought in the campaigns of the Army of Northern Virginia, including Gettysburg, Cold Harbor, and the Shenandoah Valley. Nelson Gowen’s fighting ended at the Battle of Spottsylvania Courthouse, where he was captured 12 May 1864, taken about 18 miles to the Potomac River steamboat landing at Belle Plains, Stafford Co VA, and then on May 18th he was delivered to Camp Lookout MD. He was later transferred to Elmira, NY departing Camp Lookout10 Aug 1864 and arriving at Elmira 14 Aug 1864. He remained in that camp until 19 May 1865, a month after Lee’s surrender. His release required him to take an oath of allegiance, and his final prison record notes that he was from High Point, NC, stood 5’7”, and had a dark complexion, dark hair, and grey eyes.

Martha lived until 1929. From 1900-1920, the census shows her in Greensboro, Guilford Co, NC with daughter Mattie S Goins. 1900 shows her born Apr 1843 and Mattie Dec 1882, and notes that her father was born in GA. The 03 Apr 1929 death record for Martha Ann Goins indicates she was 87yo, d/o Maj. John Anderson and Nancy Meyers, widow of Jesse Goins, and was born Orange Co NC and buried at Green Hill Cemetery (Ancestry.com. North Carolina, Deaths, 1906-1930).
Jesse's son William Gaston Goins seems to be the William G. Goins who bought a 1.4a lot on the Haw River in Caswell Co NC (Deed Bk 7 Pg 534, http://www.alamancerod.org/DocumentView.asp?DocumentType=Deed&Instrument=00070524&Close=True).

The 20 Feb 1927 Wake Co NC death record for Carrie (Goins) Vincent indicates that she was born in Alamance Co 47 years earlier to William G. Goins and Mary Danley, also both born in Alamance, and that she was buried at Graham, Alamance Co NC (Ancestry.com. North Carolina, Death Certificates, 1909-1976).The 31 May 1932 death record for Adrian W Goins of Burlington, Alamance Co NC (appearing in drag above as "Vandora") notes that he was born 02 Feb 1874 in Caswell Co NC to William Goins and Mary Daniely (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FPDZ-DHP).
Thus, we follow the line of Jesse Goins from Randolph to Caswell to Alamance counties.
The Compiled Service Record (at fold3.com) shows that Private William G. Goings enlisted in Co I of the 8th NC Infantry 13 Apr 1864 at Gibsonville, NC [on the Alamance/Guilford county line]. On 31 Aug 1864 he is recorded "sick" at the Camp Winder General Hospital in Richmond, Va; the Aug/Sep muster roll notes that he was “absent wounded hospital Richmond Va.”; and clothing was issued to him at Camp Winder 20 Oct 1864.
ReplyDeleteThe details of his service come in his 14 Jun 1901 (age 54) and 12 Jul 1907 (age 60) pension applications, filed in Alamance Co NC. The Altamehaw resident reported that he enlisted Apr 1864 and served at Bermuda Hundred [Chesterfield Co VA], being wounded in the right thigh on 18 May 1864 [Gen. Butler abandoned his drive toward Richmond 2 days later] and at Fort Harrison, Henrico Co VA, being wounded in the rump or right hip on 30 Sep 1864 [in the Battle of Chaffin's Bluff] (Ancestry.com. North Carolina, Confederate Soldiers and Widows Pension Applications, 1885-1953).
On 16 May 1865, as William M Goings, he was issued a certificate of parole under the terms of Joseph Johnston's 26 Apr 1865 surrender of the Army of the Tennessee (cf. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:wIWSpLf4Yt4J:www.learnnc.org/lp/editions/nchist-civilwar/4884+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us).
Two apparent brothers of Jesse Goins enlisted together in Company B of the 52nd NC Infantry, the "Randolph Guards." Both enrolled as privates for 3 year terms at Asheboro, Randolph Co NC in Mar 1862, and both mustered into service 28 Apr 1862 at Camp Mangum, near Raleigh in Wake Co NC.
ReplyDeletePrivate Manley C. Gowins, a 36yo, 6'1" farmer born Randolph Co NC, enrolled 11 Mar 1862. He was discharged before the 30 Jun 1862 muster for being over age.
Private Andrew J. Goins (variously Goings, Gowins, Ganes, and even Jones) was a 26yo, 5'8" farmer, who enrolled 27 Mar 1862. He was marked absent without leave Jun 1862, but after a break in the records he is present on the muster rolls Sep 1862 – Feb 1863 and, after another break, Aug-Oct 1863; there is a note that he was absent sick when enlistment bounties were paid and his is still owed, though no related documentation appears in his compiled service record. He was on furlough of indulgence 08 Jan 1864, appearing from this date with the rank of 3rd Corporal. He was then present for Jan-Oct 1864 musters, except absent wounded Jul/Aug 1864. He was admitted to the Wayside Hospital in Richmond VA 22 Aug 1864, and transferred to General Hospital Camp Winder the next day; there on 29 Aug 1864 he was issued clothing and a passport for transfer to the hospital at Thomasville [Davidson Co] NC. Present Nov/Dec 1864. Cpl. A.J. Goings was paroled at Appomattox 09 Apr 1865.
