Thomas Goheen Family, Bucks Co, PA
To Barbara, Christina and Ed:
I am of the Thomas Goheen line from Bucks Co., PA. I do have a Family Tree created by the Goheens in Port Hope, Ontario which shows Thomas Sr. b. 1753 m. to Rebecca Clark, who had a son Thomas Goheen b. 1781 in Bensalem, PA and died in Ontario. Raymond Goheen is part of this family line and I do have letters from him from the 1980's. My uncle, Willard S. Goheen, has stated to me that there were two brothers that came over from Ireland (to his knowledge) as British soldiers, he does not know the date. He also ran into Goheens in Ireland in 1978 while on vacation. They were located on a small island in the southern region of Ireland, called the Blaskett Islands. If I can be of any help, looking up names on my family tree, I would be happy to. I welcome all of your input, and look forward to sharing with you what I know. Mary "Rusty" Goheen

Christina:
Thanks for such a quick reply. With the names you are asking about I believe we are related. I need alittle more information on Annie Goheen to trace her on the Family Tree, let me know her parents names. If you have a tie to John & Ophelia Goheen your in the right family! The John Goheen I have, was married to Ophelia Shufelt. John was born in 1808 and died in 1894, at 86. He was a farmer and veterinarian near Lindsay, Ontario, Canada. He was the oldest son of Thomas Goheen Jr. My line comes from John's brother Israel. Thomas & Levina (Cryderman) Goheen had 10 children: John, Israel, Rebecca, Michael, Charles, Henry, George, Joseph & Mary (twins) and Jesse. Unfortunately not much is ever said about the women. I don't have anything on Rebecca Clark other than they were married in Bensalem, Pa on March 3, 1780 and prior to 1781 Thomas Sr. had served as a British Soldier. The 3 oldest children were also born in Bensalem, Pa: Thomas Jr., Charles and Elizabeth. Samuel was born on their way north to Canada and Jesse was born in Canada. As to Levina Cryderman, her father's name was Michael and I do have some information on his family, which I will dig up. The information hasn't been confirmed yet, I need to contact the author of the info, to confirm Levina, she wasn't listed as one of the children, but Michael would have been the same age as Thomas Jr.'s father in the same area of the country and he was also a Loyalist. Let me know Annie's parent's name and I'll go through the tree, I'm sure we will be able to connect.

My family too, comes from Thomas Goheen and Rebecca Clark, down the line through John & Ophelia, Daniel & Sarah (Gibson), George & Jemima (Fulton), whose daughter Laura Goheen was my grandmother. I have a copy of Ray Goheen's family tree.

Denise, We are cousins, Your ggggrandfather John and mine were brothers, my line is from Israel and Elizabeth (Scott) Goheen, my great grandfather was Charles, grandfather Willard and father was Gerald. Have you talked with Christina? You are of the same direct line, her ggreat grandfather was also John Goheen. I have ran across the Cryderman line, Thomas Goheen's wife Levina's family, but haven't contacted them yet, they are looking for siblings and children of Michael Goheen, who was Levina's father, I'll update you when I hear back from them. The tree your speaking of is from the Canadian Goheens? Raymond of Newcastle? Let me know, so we are on the same page! I can be reached at rustygo1@hotmail.com. Nice to meet another cousin.
