I went to HS with some Meeks. The story in HS was that their father’s family was Indian, so the family would never have anything to do with his family. Come to find out a few years ago, I am related to that family. My ggrandparents moved away from their Indian family too.

Laurie, I also descend from John Charles Cole and Cuzzie Anderson. They were my 5th gr grandparents. I am descended from their son, William Anderson Cole and Biddy Collins. I’m also descended from William and his second wife, Rebecca. And if that isn’t enough, I’m also descended from John and Cuzzie’s daughter, Luana Cole and William Campbell – they were never married. William and Biddy’s daughter, Charlotte married Luana and William’s son, Charles, and had my gr grandfather, Wallis Cole, who had my grandfather, Elbert Cole, who had my mother Ollie Cole. William and Rebecca’s daughter, Biddy, married George Washington Perkins. They had William Riley Perkins. William Riley Perkins’ daughter, Bertha married Frank Barnett and they had my dad, Adam Barnett.
These are my family names:
Paternal: Ragland, Samples, Arbrogast
Maternal: Goad, Keller, Hall
It seems most of my relatives are from West Virginia
Hello all and welcome new poster, deragland.<O:p</O:p
<O:p</O:p
toniggoins and deragland, Do either of you have personal family stories of Indian ID, specific or not, associated with particular family names in WV or Brunswick Co. VA? I ask because I’m trying to run down a Blackfoot family story that may trace to Goldsberrys in Hardy Co. WV and Guilford and Brunswick Cos. VA. A time range would be helpful too. Mine left for Madison and Ross Cos. OH I think 1804-7. I’m not looking for other Goldsberrys necessarily, just wanting to know of other family stories to know of grouping of people with various IDs and migtation patterns. Thank you<O:p</O:p
The farthest I have been able to track so far is the civil war. Brunswick County’s courthouse was destroyed then. I have been able to track some of my family, (tuckers and masons) back earlier through some census records. They were in Brunswick county until about 1870 when they moved to Dinwiddie County.

I have a Joseph Santee who married Charlotte Williams in early 1800’s in MO. I think we have corresponded previously about other surnames. Joseph Santee died young leaving one dau. who was guardianed to John J. Williams, the father of Charlotte. I have yet to find out what happened to her after she was grown. Can give you further details from the court papers if you like. Clydene
Hello again ya’ll! I am looking into my Goss family after hitting brick walls for now with Goins/Nash clan 🙂 Once again I have found a “Cherokee” woman born in SC abt 1790 with several different names listed for her. Diasis, Diasampi, Rampas and then the possible surname of Dalrymple that I know was seen in SC in those times.
Story i heard goes when she died her husband’s family wouldn’t allow her to be buried in the family cemetary and sent her to her own kind. As you know that is how rumors get started 🙂 If anyone can tell me variations, or possible origins of those names I would appreciate any help

Hello again ya’ll! I am looking into my Goss family after hitting brick walls for now with Goins/Nash clan 🙂
Mwheelus, could you refresh my memory as to the locations of these families? All 3 surnames are familiar to me, from my neck of the woods (Goinstown area). Goins and Nash married us.

Ok well to be perfectly honest I am not clear on where Goinstown is/was. From the few relatives I may have found that trace back to VA, NC, & SC none of them agree where Goinstown was and if our relatives were there ….that may be because they live in Oklahoma and disagree with each other. Ya’ll can give me a better idea I am sure.:)
Now the tricky part, Phillip Goins was father to a Jeremiah Goins that had MANY children and they eventually migrated to Texas then Oklahoma. (Jeremiah has other story connected to my family that isn’t relative to this information;) )
Phillip Goins is also father to Michael Goins that he had with Keziah/Kiziah/Kizzy Nash. Phillip was born in either MS or SC abt 1785. He was bonded in marriage to Keziah Nash in 1815 in Natchitoches, LA. Their children were legitimized then after having been born in MS in 1811 and 1813.
Keziah’s father was Thomas Nash born in Chowan NC in either 1753/1764 depending on who I talk to. Her mother is possibly Anna Goins who I have no information on or Emily Sarah Slater born in VA abt 1767. Once again there is an argument as to which woman was her mother and if Anna Goins was a Goins from a first marriage or that was her maiden name. Here is a list of Keziah’s siblings and their approx birth year:
BORN
Michael Nash abt 1804
Martha Patsy 1787
Fanny 1793
William 1785/1782
Thomas Jr. 1785/1782
Elizabeth 1794
Rebecca “Becky” 1801
Mary Polly Born 6-6-1781 Died 9-14-1855 (pic of her grave)
Goss is my husband’s family and the woman I am looking for help on was married to Mathew/Matthew Goss born abt 1790 in Anderson Co, SC died 12/18/1883 in Locust Grove, Henry Co, Georgia. He married the “Cherokee” woman “Diasis Rampas/ Diasampi Dalrymple?” abt 1808 in Pendleton District, SC.
Here is some additional information that I was given about Matthew Goss:
He drew a land allotment from the governor, Henry Middleton, on the second day of November 1812 which comprised 150 acres located on th waters of the Upper Long Branch Creek in the Barnwelr District. This may be in Barnwall, SC.
Date: 8 MAR 1832 Place: applied for 2 draws Gold Lottery Habersham Co., GA Date: 21 JUN 1813 Place: served in Nash’s Regiment South Carolina Volunteers Date: 20 JUN 1814 Place: Capt. Andrew Hamilton’s Co., SC Militia Place: 1820, 1830 census of Pendleton Dist. SC.

Sorry to make this so long but I am hoping someone sees a familiar name or place from their own searches.
