In honor and memory of Ransom W. Goad.

The Pictures and Records section contains a compiling of gathered information and records in honor of Ransom W. Goad, 1 of approximately 140+ Goads that have been compiled that served in the Civil War. The intent was to create a lineage of all the Goads in the Civil War and then establish those battles they may have fought against each other. Five years later it blossomed into 1300+ pages and continues to grow as more information is located. The Memorial Page was a perfect way to share the information gathered with descendants of Ransom W. Goad and to honor that soldier.

Note:

In the "Record of Confederate Dead at Emory & Henry Cemetery" you will find a the name of "R.W. Good" for plot no. 152 listed under the regiment of the 10th Kentucky Cavalry showing date of Aprl 8, 1864. It took a while to find the location he was buried.
Linking this together, the Adjutant General under the 14th Kentucky Cavalry (orginally designated the 10th) listed a R. W. Goad (instead of Good) and died April 7, 1864.
