1. | Judith Taylor was born in 1743 in Richmond Co, VA (daughter of Robert Taylor, II and Mary Hudson); and died. Notes:
Judith Taylor was born c1743, and may be a child to Robert TAYLOR
who died in 1758 Edgecombe Co., NC., naming a daughter Judith in this
will. Members of this TAYLOR family were found in Greene Co., MO.,
where John W. Lee's family lived according to the 1850 census records.
Before they lived in Georgia, it could be that they lived in the area
of Bertie and Craven Co., North Carolina.
From this URL:
http://www.inmind.com/people/dcooper/GoffbookUVW.htm, we find that
there was a William Goofe in Orange Co., NC in 1755 and William GOUGH
in Bertie, tax lists, for 1762 and 1774. If this William was our
William and in Bertie Co., NC in 1762, he could well have been married
to a Judith Taylor who was proven to be in Edgecombe Co., NC (border
Bertie County). One Judith Gough was named in her father's will of
1758 in Edgecombe Co., NC., and Internet trees for this man, Robert
Taylor and his wife, either Mary or Ann Hudson, show that the
daughter, Judith Taylor, was born around 1743. However, this is just
speculation at this time and not a proven connection.
Deed records in Georgia from 1789 to 1795 indicate that William &
Judith Gough owned land in Franklin Co., GA., before moving up to
Logan Co., KY.
On 04 Dec 1802, Wm. & Judith Gough sold 200 acres of land to
Jonathan Gough, from land which had been surveyed on Sandy Creek that
was granted to Wm. Gaugh Sr on 05 Dec 1796.
The Sandy Creek Baptist church in Logan Co., KY was established in
1805. Among the first members were Wm. Gough Sr, Judith Gough,
Jonathan Gough, Thomas Lawrence, Abigail Lawrence, Charity Doughety
and it is believed that Wm. Gough Sr, Thomas and Abigail (Gough)
Lawrence are buried at the original site of the church.
Judith married William Robert Gough, Sr. about 1763 in prob VA. William (son of William Gough and Lucy Byram) was born about 1745 in Overwharton Parish, Stafford, VA.; died in 1805 in Butler Co., KY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
