GOFF, RIDER,
VASSEL -
I am looking for information on a James/John Goff was married to a Mary Rider and
had a son Jack Goff born 1-11-1867. In information given to the funeral home for my g
grandfather Jack it showed that his father was John but I got information from a Rider
researcher that Jack's father was James. I know that Jack had a brother James. Jack married
Bettie Rider and James his brother married a Emma Vassel. I know this family was in
Bedford, Botetourt, and Allegany counties before moving toward Indiana. This is about all I have
to go on and looking for anyone who might have any other information to share. I do have quite a
little bit on Jack/Bettie Rider Goff family and a little on James/Emma
Vassel Goff family.
