Charlene,
I have called Creech funeral home here in BELL CO Kentucky. You listed the
Goodin Cemetery in Bell Co MO. Do you want the Cemetery in KY or MO. I do
know that the Goodin Cemetery outside of Pineville Kentucky is a private
Cemetery, and that there are King family members burried there. The man who
would be able to tell you if there is a place in that Goodin Cemetery for
your family member. He was not in at this time but his wife ask me to call
back about 2 this afternoon. (TUESDAY). You also will need to contact a
funeral home in town to make arrangements. Please contact me at
.

I do not know if we connect but I would like to check this out and see.
First my Great Grandfather Benjamin Hardin Goodin had a sister Belle. I have
never been able to track her in any Bell Co info. I was told by my great
uncle CT Goodin that she moved west and married. Second Ben Goodins
grandmother was Mahala Fuson Goodin.
Another link, MY grandmother named her daughter Charlene Goforth and my
father was James Evermont Goforth. So do you see a pattern here?
I have no birth or death date for Belle Goodin. So did your Belle leave
Kentucky and move west and marry a Doctor. This was what we were told.
Looking forward to your answer. Kay Goforth Adams
