Don’t know if this has been posted before. I happened upon it while looking for something else. It’s about 38 pages, so grab a cup of coffee.
Unclear of the source(s) yet, but from what I’ve been reading in a borrowed copy of one of Haithcock’s books, there is much to learn in Pittsylvania County.
I see that John Goings lived next door to John Witt, who’d be one of my grandpapas. Many of my relatives still live on/near Blackberry Creek. The Cox family mentioned looks familiar, as well.
Hope this is useful to others:

Could this Elizabeth Damron be Elizabeth Bass mentioned in this record you posted?

“Thomas’ brother William Goin……married Elizabeth the widow of Christopher Dameron. ” (p.252 – same source)
Thomas, b.abt. 1750 to 1759 per 1830 Claiborne census, is claimed by some to have been b. 1750 or 1752 in Brunswick Co., Va. His father is said to be Thomas Goin, b.abt. 1729, d. 1797 Randolph Co., NC; and mother said to be a Hardister. There are a James and a Thomas Goins on the 1782 Surry Co., NC Tax List.
These researchers list William as b. 1756 Brunswick Co., Va, d. 1830s Claiborne Co., NC. The 1830 Claiborne census lists him as b. 1750 to 1759 and the oldest female is 50 to 59.
Curiously, Thomas has no females listed in his 1830 household.
