GOODE, Richard (Capt.; Maj.) W8855

Declaration of Rebecca Goode – Henry Co., KY, 11 Jan. 1837 – aged about 85 – She has been a resident of Henry County, KY, for the last 34 or 35 years. Her maiden name was Rebecca Young. She was born in Stokes County, NC, where she married at the house of her father to Richard Goode. She and Richard resided in Stokes County during the Revolution. For about seven years, the whole period of the war, Richard was so frequently called from home and engaged in the service of his country that his farming and other home business was entirely neglected to her. The duty of attending to such matters devolved exclusively upon Rebecca. He served in the aggregate at least four years.

Richard’s first service was a tour against the Tories on the Santee and Yadkin Rivers for three months. He was the captain of a volunteer company.

Richard afterwards served as a major. In a tour as such he was engaged in the battle at Ramseurs Mill. He was a major in most occasions when he was called out. He was at the Battle of Guilford and at Eutaw Springs. He left home as a major destined for Georgia and did not return for nine months. She thinks he was in regular service part of the time but is not certain. He often served as a militia officer and sometimes as a volunteer officer. He was called into service by General Rutherford in fall of 1778 and was absent from home for nearly nine months and was taken sick and came home. He was a major for all of the time except three months service as a captain.

Richard Goode died in 1800 as they were moving to Kentucky. Rebecca has had general bad health for the last three years.

She believes William Lorance and Leonard K. Bradley are still alive and can prove Richard’s service.

To Majr Goode Aff. of Joseph Banner, Stokes Co., NC, 20 Dec. 1837 – Joseph, a pensioner, aged 87, knows of Capt. Richard Goode’s service. Richard married Rebecca Young, a daughter of Benjamin Young. Joseph was well acquainted with Richard and Rebecca before and after the Revolution as they were his nighbors on Townfork, a little river in Surry (now Stokes). He was not at their wedding but it was publicly known that they were married by Gray Bynum, Esq., an acting justice of the peace about 1776. Banner served as one of the private soldiers under Capt. Goode until they marched to the Long Islands of Holston River when Capt. Goode was appointed adjutant of Col. Jo Williams Regiment and Thomas Evans as Captain proceeded westwardly to the Indian Towns, destroyed them, and capitulated with the Chiefs of the Tribe and then returned home. Goode commanded a company as captain against the Scotch insurgents at and near Fayetteville, NC at least two months (this tour preceded the Long Islands tour). After the Cherokee expedition, Goode commanded a company that was raised for a five months tour and marched towards the South in company with several of Banner’s neighbors and near relatives. Goode was very much esteemed by all who served under and with him. Towards the end of the war he was commissioned a major; he was a militia officer the whole war.

Aff. of Ephraim Banner, Stokes Co., NC, 20 Dec. 1837. Aged 84, res. of Stokes, and a pensioner. Ephraim swears that Joseph Banner’s account is true. Ephraim was security on the bond for the marriage license for Richard Goode to marry Rebecca Young, daughter of Benjamin Young, in 1776. Richard and Rebecca had sons and daughters before they started to remove to Kentucky. Ephraim understood that Major Goode "died on the road before he reached the intended place of destination."

Aff. of "The Widdow" Martha Blackburn – Stokes Co., NC. – She well remembers that Gray Bynum, J.P., married her cousin Richard Goode and her brother Thomas Goode on the same day, Richard to Rebecca Young, daughter of Benjamin Young, and her brother to Nancy Beazley in either 1776 or 1778.

The most published and erroneous of all the accounts of our GOODE family was caused by the ready-made packets once sent out by the Rev. War pension record dept. in Washington, DC. Violet K. Young of North Carolina stayed after them until they gave her the actual copies of testimony, which reflect the real relationship of Major Richard GOODE and Martha GOODE BLACKBURN, sister of Thomas GOODE, Jr., and as Martha said in her statement, she is a cousin of Major Richard GOODE.

Thomas GOODE, Jr., had a younger brother named Richard, but he did not marry and a land division made in Stokes Co., NC, Sept. 11, 1819, almost 20 years after Major Richard GOODE died, names Thomas' siblings which include Timothy GOODE, Elener DALTON, Martha BLACKBURN, Edward GOODE, George GOODE, William GOODE, and Thomas GOODE, Jr. Elenor "Nelly" md. 1) January 4, 1798, to William MARTIN.

Major Richard and Rebecca (YOUNG) GOODE and their family left their home in Stokes Co., NC, in early 1801 to relocate in Kentucky.

Rebecca and the children continued on to Kentucky, settling in Henry County.

G. Brown Goode, Virginia Cousins (1887), pp.72-73 (86-87)

THE RAPPAHANNOCK GOODES.

131 1/2. MAJ. RICHARD GOODE, of Kentucky, grandson of Richard Goode, No. 45, was born 1730-40, died 1802. Married twice, having by first marriage two sons, by second three:--

.. 353. RICHARD GOODE, b. 1760-90.

.. 354. JOEL H.

.. 355. A son, (ROBERT)?

.. 356-7. Sons.

Richard Goode removed from Virginia to Rockingham, Stokes Co., North Carolina, 1760-70, and afterwards settled in Kentucky with his family. He fought with distinction at Braddock's defeat: was a Major in the Continental army, serving in the battle of Guilford Court House, and in the operations about Fort Duquesne. His descendant, Richard L. Goode, writes:--

"There is now in my possession a fine silver knee-buckle which once belonged to this ancestor, worn by him in the engagement at Guilford Court House. It has since descended as an heirloom by primogeniture. Major Goode started from Stokes Co., N. C., for Kentucky in 1802, but his leg was broken on the journey, and gangrene setting in, he died at Abingdon, Va., where he is buried. His widow secured a pension from the Government."

G. Brown Goode, Virginia Cousins (1887), p.473 (375-76)

No. 13 1/2 [should read 131 1/2].--Maj. Richard Goode was engaged in 1776 as captain of a company of North Carolina militia, in a campaign against the Scotch Tories, with whom a battle occurred at Moore's Creek Bridge Feb. 27, 1776. He was then with Gen. Rutherford's expedition against the Cherokees, destroying their town and crops; he was adjutant of Col. William's regiment. In 1777 he was a captain of a company which went to South Carolina, and later appears to have been Gen. Rutherford's commissary. He was in the battles at Ramson's Mills, Guilford Court House, and Eutaw Springs. Before the Revolution he was sheriff of Stokes Co. He married, 1776, Rebecca, daughter of Benjamin Young, of Town Fork (Surrey), Stokes Co., N. C., who was born in 1767, and was living in 1839, a military pensioner in Henry Co., Ky.
