Hi Lisa--The Henry GOSS that you're talking about is, I believe, the s/o Jacob GOSS, who was born abt. 1760 and died about 1835 in Fairfield Co., OH. His wife was Elizabeth. He was born in Basil, Switzerland and was one of the first settlers (1807)ofthe town of Basil (now Baltimore) in Fairfield Co. There is a story about how he and others (BIBLER included) named the town, in a couple of county history books. GUNDY was also an early settler. These early histories say that Jacob had two sons and a daughter, but that information contradicts itself later by talking about the marriage of two of his daughters. I'm a descendant of Jacob GOSS, who was also a s/o Jacob. I can't tell you much about Henry, except that he had a son Henrywho's son Emanuel went to Fulton Co., IN to join his uncles and cousins. Don't believe I have any info about his daughters. You might find more about him on the Fairfield Co. OH genweb website, where you can click on links about early settlers. I believe there are some bios there, too.
