Gorin and his wife, Jane H. (Gaunt) Gorin, were natives of Kentucky. They settled on a farm near Washington in Tazewell County in 1839. There they lived until 1844 when they moved to Eureka. A few years later they returned to Washington where Mr. Gorin operated a dry-goods store in the brick building later occupied by W. E. Petri. Elder S. P. Gorin preached as occasion required.

The Washington Republican, January 20, 1881. Joe Reckard, of Shelden, another of J. G. Gorin's disciples, was in town last week. Joe is one of the latest but not the least that John has started on the way to railroad glory. Step by step he's climbing up the golden stair and will reach the summit by and by. Some people on whom fortune has smiled look with disdain upon those they have left behind. Not so with Joe. No matter in what position you find him, he is never "to[o] big for his breeches[.]" The Washington Republican, January 13, 1881. J. G. Gorin has turned over to the railroads of this country more competent railroad men than any other one man in the state of Illinois. John took them in their infancy, cared for them, taught them all branches of railroading, and above all to be attentive to business and in all their dealing careful and honest. Dozens of these young men are to-day holding positions of trust in railroad circles, and if there is any gratitude in their hearts they must acknowledge that they are indebted to none other than J. G. Gorin for the position they now occupy. John should receive some recompense for this, and if he don't get it in this world, he'll most likely be remembered [NOTE: remainder of sentence not legible in hard copy or microfilm]. J G Gorin was John Gladin Gorin, son of Sanford above. Sandi
