About James Goad

(5) James2 Goad, (Abraham1) was born in 1765 at Bedford Co., USA, and on 24 Jul 1786 at Grayson Co., Virginia, USA, married (18) Mary Collier who was born in 1771 at Grayson Co., Virginia, USA. James died in 1850. James Goad of Montgomery County, Virginia. p. 26 The 1771 will of John Goad of Bedford County, Virginia named his children and the presumably oldest son of each of his four sons. James Goad was named as Abraham's oldest son. James married Mary Collier on July 24, 1786 in Pittsylvania County and was apparently born about 1765 or earlier. Census records conflict. When James was over 75 years of age, he accompanied his grandsons, John and Aaron B. Goad, to Kanawha County, West Virginia (Then Virginia) in the early 1840's The census of 1850 Kanawha County shows him and John living with the family of Aaron B. and gives the age of James as 92. That would date the year of his birth as about 1758. Mary Collier, wife of James, was his second cousin as her parents are believed to have Aaron and Elizabeht Goad Collier, she being a daughter of Abraham Goad of Pittsylvania County. All six of their children remained in the Carroll-Floyd area in Virginia to raise large families whose descendants own a fair portion of that part of Virginia today. Children:
