I found the following Goodin/Goodens in Ratcliffs, perhaps it will give you a starting point. Goodin, Henry s/o Theophilis, Granville county NC 1755 Theophilis s/o Theophilis, Granville County NC 1755 Aaron, Jones County NC 1779 Wm, Johnston County 1784 Gooden, Drury, Pitt county NC 1764 Richard, Sr, Cumberland county NC 1767 Wm, Dobbs county NC 1779 James, Bertie county NC 1774 Willis, Johnston county NC 1784 Gooding, Daniel, Dobbs county NC 1780 Francis, New Bern NC 1779 John, New Bern NC 1779 Lewis, Richmond county 1790 John, Chowan county 1717,1721,1753,1769 Joseph, Chowan county 1753 I know this doesn't answer your question but at least it seems that the Goodins were all with exception of Cumberland county, were all pretty much in the same area of the state.

Cindy-- Saw you offer to Alice & wonder if you would be a dear & look mine up also. I have several NC books & will do a look up for you if you're interested: Grimes Will abstracts Olds supplement to Grimes NC Taxpayers Orange Co. Wills Granville Co. Marriages NC & SC marriages (fr news) Any of the following that you can do will be appreciated. I am most interested in the Williams surname but they all intermarried after getting to KY so I figure they knew each other in Rutherford Co. BRIDGES: Thomas & Moses of Morgan District. Trying to prove that Winney wife of Benj Williams was a Bridges. There was some close connection between the 2 families besides being neighbors. HUCKABY: if the surname is there, just give me the given names, no data at this point. WILLIAMS: I don't know parents for my Benjamin WILLIAMS & Winney his wife. But here is my data on them & their children: Benj. & Winney & their family left Rutherford c1798 & settled in Barren Co., KY where he d. c1817. I think she d. in IL. Benjamin possibly b. c1740-45 in VA. The dates here are mostly from census records & in reality could be much different. Their children who all m. in KY so just need their births or other data prior to 1800: 1. Nancy [1], b. c1768 NC, d. after 1844, 2. Mary "Polly" [8], b. bef 1790, 3. Jonas/Jones [2], b. bef 1774 NC, d. after 1821, 4. Sally [7], b. bef 1790, 5. Rachel [3], b. aft 1784 Rutherford Co., NC, 6. Elizabeth "Betsy" [9], b. bef 1790 Ruth.Co., 7. John W. [10], b. bef 1790 Ruth.Co., 8. William [6], b. bef 1784 Ruth.Co., d. c1852 9. James [4], b. c1784 Ruth. Co., 10. Milly (Millicent?) [13], b. c1794 Rutherford Co., NC, d. 1823 11. Rebecca Heulda [12], b. c1790 Ruth.Co., 12. Benjamin (Jr) [11], b. c1790 Ruth.Co., 13. Richard [14], b. 22 Feb 1796 Ruth.Co., 14. Martha Ann "Patsy" [5], b. 10 Jun 1789 Morgan District, Rutherford Co., NC, d. 6 Oct 1865 Fresno Co., CA, 15. Thomas [15], b. c1800 Barren Co., KY, d. Putnam Co., MO, 16. David W.

Good Morning Everyone, I have a request which I hope someone can answer. I am trying to find any and all information about the George and Henry Colson/Coulson of Rockingham and Guilford counties. George married hannah Wright in Guilford county 27 Nov 1775. Henry went to TN after he received a land grant for Revolutionary service about 1795. I think I know who the Isaac Colson in Guilford county was, but these two have been a mystery to me. Where they brothers? father and son? where did they come from? Cindy in NC

Alice, I would suggest you find a tax schedule for Rutherford county, as the companies usually were the tax districts within a county. I have several Rutherfort county books, marriages, wills, etc. If you will give the first and last name of your ancestor i will see if I can find them.
