This website is an extension of the book, Our Folks by Maron Summer Eve. The book provides an outline format of the known descendants of the first Goggans to come to the USA. I also include genealogy and DNA matching for my extended family.

The original book was an amazing work, considering most of the information was gathered in county courthouses in the southern US or by communicating directly with families that were part of the tree. With the advent of the internet and digitized public records and information, the tree is becoming more complete. Traveling from South Carolina to beyond eastern Mississippi in the '70's and '80's did not seem part of the original scope, even though a great many descendants had moved to TX, OK, CA, and many other places.
