He appears on muster rolls Aug 1861-Mar 1862, then was admitted to the General Hospital at Wilmington NC 08 Mar 1862 for "febris remittens" (malaria), dying two days later with a diagnosis of typhoid fever. A claim was 03 Jun 1863 by his father Wm. Goins. FindAGrave shows his Lee County grave marker, which attests his Confederate service (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/61336852).<br /><br />Edward Goins, sometimes called Edwin, enlisted at Jonesboro 10 Sep 1861 at age 21. He appears on the rolls through Apr 1862 as a private, then after a gap in the records, he reappears Nov 1862 - Oct 1864 as a teamster; he was paroled with the Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox 09 Apr 1865. <br /><br />After the war, the family relocated to Neosho, Coffey Co KS, dwelling 52 (in the process, their race changed from mulatto to white).<br />• William Gowen 58 farmer, cannot write<br />• Edward Gowen 29 farmer, cannot read/write<br />• Mary Gowen 25 K.H. , cannot read/write<br />• Reed Gowen 24 farmhand, cannot read/write<br />• Harriet Gowen 26 K.H.<br />• Alice Gowen 13 <br />• Joseph Gowen 11<br />• Colon Gowen 19<br />• William Gowen 17 laborer<br />All b NC.<br /><br />Of these, the veteran Edward Goins and his brother Reed pushed on to Oregon, appearing in Albany, Linn Co OR in 1880 (dwelling 285). The family left Kansas between 1873 and 1877; since they do not appear to be listed in the 1875 Kansas territorial census, the early date is favored. <br />• Edward D.

We were always told that we had Indian blood in us, but always kinda brushed it off, but i am so grateful to finally see that it is true. Thank God! Bless you allAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
