Robert Gooding's House
Jim, as I indicated in the previous message, my grandmother was Elizabeth Wills Vaughan Johnson, wife of George Rapp Johnson.She is the daughter of James Gilbert Vaughan and Susan Elizabeth Gooding of Monroe County, West Virginia.
Susan Elizabeth is the daughter of Robert Gooding and Elizabeth Wills of Madison County Virginia.They were married on 22 July 1819, Culpepper Couinty, by Lewis Connerstead.Susan Elizabeth named my grandmother after her mother, Elizabeth Wills.The Robert Gooding house that I mentioned was built in Madison, Madison County, Virginia, and is written about in the book Madison County Homes.Robert was born circa 1797; Elizabeth was born circa 1802.
I have not established any documentation for Robert's or Elizabeth's parents.I don't know if a connection exists with any of your Roberts.In a message of April 5, 2000, Anne Lancaster Gooding posted a message stating "Robert in this generation is the son of Cornelius Gooding (son of Abraham)...."; I have not followed through on any further validation of my gggrandfather's parents.
Any help would be appreciated.I can provide more detailed data on my four generations in this line if you would like it for your database.
