I'm looking for anyone who might have information on the last name Goane. I understand that not so long ago the "e" was added to our last name. The first name "John" has been pasted down for several generations. Any information would be helpful.

I, too, have been tracing the Goans/Goings. I believe I have traced them back to the 1830's from Tennessee to Virginia. There was a John Goan listed in the 1830 Census of Hawkins County, TN. He was listed as a 'free person of color.' I keep finding the names Goans/Goins/Goings associated with the "Melungeons."

I am seeking information on Fanny or Preston Goan, who were listed on the 1830 Grainger County, TN census. I'm trying to find out if they are the same Fanny and Preston that I find on the 1870 Bedford, VA census. Fanny had 3 children, Laura, Sally Elizabeth (Beth), Judith, and Ulysses. Appreciate any assistance given.
