I have LOTS more information on this line - way too much to put here! |
The Vannoy appear to have first lived in Staten Island, NY, later moving to Hunterdon Co., NJ. Many of them later went to Wilkes Co., NC. My line in particular seemed to move on to West Virginia - living in many counties there, but mainly Gilmer Co. and some moving on to Parkersburg, Wood Co. |
GOFF |
The Goff's are said to have been among the first settlers of Gilmer Co., WV - settling in the area across the river from Glenville. |
