Because of this, it's great to let you know that the 2013 Goff-Gough Gathering (Sep 5-7)will be in historic and scenic southeastern Massachusetts. There will be a variety of interesting activities scheduled which you can read about at http://goff-gough.com/cpage.php?pt=48. There is other information about the Gathering on the website as well, including a listing of the contents of the 34 boxes of research of Thomas Theodore Goff housed at the New England Historic Genealogical Society, which attendees visit on Friday. Lodging is at the Hampton Inn - Raynham-Taunton, centrally located - less than 40 miles from Boston, Providence, Plymouth and Cape Cod and near the home area of many early Goffs. If you descend from or have an interest in the Goff family of Bristol Co., MA, consider attending the Gathering in Massachusetts this September.
