She was the daughterr of Charles E. and Lula Mo. Brewster and was born ca 1909 in Earlington, Ky. Roy's parents were Charles Monroe (1876-1958) amd Nora S. Cruise (1887-1969) dau of David and Patri Ann (Akers) Cruise. Charles' father was James Fountain Goad. From there we go back to Reuben, Aaron, Robert,Abraham, Abraham to the 1600s. You and I connect at Aaron Goad as Reuben and my ancestor Robert,Jr ("Big Robin") were brothers, sons of Aaron.. My mother (1893-1997) (Yes, 104) was born in Carroll County, Va. I wrote a book on the Goads. I have much more detail on your families. Roy had daughters Iris Garay and Eleanor Marie Scott. If your name is Goad, they must have had a brother, your father, that I have no record of. The daughters were born 1928 and 1930 so maybe your father bon ca 1932 and you ca 1960 ??? I'd guess you at about age forty. -- Ken
