There is a Will of William Claiborne who died 1705 King William County, Va. proved October 29, 1705.
Legates were son William Claiborn, cousin Thomas Claiborne,
sister Ursul, a Claiborne Gooch and her son Claiborne Gooch also mentions Ursala's husband William Gooch. Later in the will "Gooch" is spelled "Gough" in reference to Claiborne and Ursala.
Reference- VA MAG V.1. page 318, King William County, book 2, 1702-1.
I found this on Ancestry.Com under the World Tree Project. The information might be helpful in proving the marriage of Col. Thomas Avent and Elizabeth Gooch/Gough.
