I have seen several references to Charles Goodnight, there are several thru the generations. I have found a really great geneology site for the Goodnights. It covers Hans Michael and all of his brothers and many of their descendants. This site is really wonderful.Look it up at http://w3.net/~durp/cgi-bin/igmget.cgi/n=Goodnight?
I live in Southwest Kansas and am proud to call Charles Goodnight of the Goodnight-Loving trail family. I and several of my family members were fortunate enough to participate on the reinactment of the Great American Cattle drive a few years back. Hope to hear from other Goodnights soon.
