1832 Sept 7 – Job Going admr of Benjamin Pelmore decd, pltf, v. Thomas B Goyne  and James Christian. Trover. This action is brought to recover damages for the conversion of a certain negro man slave by the name of Harry the property of the estate of the said Benjamin decd with a value of 500 dollars. Benjamin Pelmore “casually lost the said negro man Harry out of his possession and the said negro man Harry afterwards . . . came to the possession of the said Defts by finding . . . said Defts well knowing the said negro man Harry to be the property of the said Benjamin Pelmore in his lifetime . . . Defts have not delivered said negro man Harry despite often requests they do so. (It appears in the next paragraph they are alleging a 2nd negro man named Harry as well was taken – but not clear if this is the same, or a repeat).
Defts plead “not guilty”. Jury trial found Defts guilty. Damages for 518 dollars plus costs.
Pltf introduced a bill of sale . . . executed by Deft Goyne to Plamore the Pltfs decd intestate. It was not proved that the negro boy ever went into the possession of Palmore. It was proved that the negro was not delivered at the time of sale. It was proved that most usually the negro was in the possession of Goyne who executed the Bill of Sale. That at one time the negro was hired out in the lifetime of Pelmore but by whom it was not known. It was proved that Palmore died in July or August 1830. It was also proved that after the death of Palmore, Goyne remained in possession of the negro until 1832 when Goyneexecuted to Deft Christian a bill of sale for said boy Harry and delivered the possession at the time of sale. That Christian executed to Goyne his promissory note for 450 dollars for said boy. There was no other evidence respecting the note and it did not appear whether it was paid or not. It was proved that prior and at the time of executing the said Bill of Sale by Goyne to Palmore, Goyne was embarrassed and in failing circumstances – that the negro was not delivered to Palmore nor seen in his possession by the witnesses. That no money was paid by Palmore to Goyne at the time of executing the Bill of Sale, but his note given for the amt expressed in the bill of sale. After this evidence the Deft Christian moved the Court to have the administrators of Palmore who was present in Court sworn as a witness to establish four facts in his knowledge – . . . sale of the negro Harry by Deft Goyne to Palmore was for the purpose of preventing his sale for the debts of Deft Goyne. Plaintiff objected, and was sustained by court, which Deft objected. Some time after sale to Christian the boy was some time in Goyne’s possession and some times in Christians. . . . it was difficult to tell in whose possession the boy was whether Goyne or Christian . . . they usually lived together. . . . At one time since the sale to Christian, deft Goyne hired him out and recd price of hire for said boy. . . . no evidence that the note given by Goyne to Christian was ever paid. . . . it was generally known in the neighborhood where Defts resided that Palmore or his estate had a claim on the negro.
Bill of Sale produced dated: 31st day of December 1829 – Thomas Goyne sold negro Harry to Benjamin Palmore for 400 dollars.
Bill of Sale produced dated 5th of May 1832 – Thomas B Goyne sold negro Harry to James Christian for 450 dollars.

Job Going and Rebecca Going’s daughter, Rebecca Going married John Lang.   According to Tuscaloosa County Orphans Court Book 1, page 84, the heirs of Job Isaac Going were identified as “Rebecca Goyne Lang and John Lang, Polly McClure of Indiana, wife of Joseph McClure, Martha A. Going, Jane Evelyn Going, Eli Going and Alfred Going.”

“Rebecca Goyne” received 1/5 of the estate valued at $9,740.475, and the remainder was divided among the five children.  Each child received $1,100.365 in cash and property for his share.  Joseph McClure and Polly McClure, living in a non-slavery state, received cash in lieu of slaves.

Rebecca Lockert Going was recorded as a charter member of Oak Grove Presbyterian Church of Franconia, Alabama on May 20, 1837.  Her land lay immediately north of the church site.  Later this church became the First Presbyterian Church of Aliceville, Alabama, according to “Early Churches of Alabama.”  All of the 32 charter members of the congregation came from Kershaw, Union and Chester Districts of South Carolina.

Rebecca Lockert Going reappeared on the roster of the Oak Grove Presbyterian Church in April 1843.  She appeared as the head of a household in the 1850 census of Pickens County, Household 1538:

“Going,  Rebecca                 73, born in South Carolina
Martha A.                              40, born in South Carolina”

Mary “Polly” Going, daughter of Job Isaac Going and Rebecca Lockert Going, was born about 1809 at Flat Rock.  She was brought to Tuscaloosa County, Alabama in 1823.  She was married about 1830 to Joseph McClure.  When her father died in 1834, they received $1,100.365 in cash.  Since at that time they lived in Indiana, a “free” state, they were unable to inherit any of her father’s slaves.

Martha A. Going, daughter of Job Isaac Going and Rebecca Lockert Going, was born January 25, 1811 at Flat Rock, in Chester County.  She was brought by her parents to Tuscaloosa County in 1823   She was mentioned as an heir when her father’s estate was administered in 1834.  She was received into Oak Grove Presbyterian Church October 1, 1838, according to the church records.  She also appeared on the church roster in April 1843.

She was recorded in the 1850 census at age 40, living in the household of her mother. She was married to Elder Archibald Hood May 4, 1854, according to the church records.  He was born April 3, 1797, and she was his third wife.  He was the tenth child of William Hood and Jane Wiggins Hood and had married first, about 1780, Annie Somerville, daughter of James Somerville and Elizabeth Fletcher Somerville.  He remarried about 1831 to Mary Miller, daughter of Eli Miller and Ellen Knox Miller. He died March 25, 1871, and  Martha A. Going Hood died September 30, 1873.  They were buried in Franconia Cemetery.

Jane E. Going, daughter of Job Isaac Going and Rebecca Lockert Going, was born July 29, 1813, probably in Chester County.  She was brought to Tuscaloosa County in 1823.  She was mentioned as an heir in the settlement of the estate of her father.  She was married about 1837 to Benjamin J. Hughes who was born December 4, 1804.  Benjamin J. Hughes died May 4, 1878, and Jane E. Going Hughes died March 26, 1880.  Both were buried in Franconia Cemetery in the Going section.  They had seven or eight children, according to a letter written August 11, 1947 by Walter S. Going of Birmingham, Alabama.

Known children are:

Ben Jolly Hughes                                 born about 1840
Rufus L. Hughes                                  baptized April 10, 1842
Martha C. Hughes                               baptized April 23, 1844
Ann Foster Hughes                             baptized April 2, 1847
Mary T. Hughes                                   born March 5, 1849

Evelyn Somerville, identified as a granddaughter of Benjamin J. Hughes and Jane E. Going Hughes, was born in 1885.  Her obituary reveals much about the Going family:

“Evelyn Somerville, 73, died May 19, near Aliceville, Alabama at ‘Ingleside,’ home of her grandparents, Benjamin J. and Jane Going Hughes, in which pillared house she was born.  Graduate of the University of Alabama, where she was a Phi Beta Kappa in 1906, she received a M.A. degree at Drexel Institute in New York City.  For a generation she followed her beloved library work at Troy College and at  Livingston State Teachers College.  She was also a librarian at Tuscaloosa, Fayette and Birmingham, Alabama and at Columbus, Ohio.

Prominent in state and local patriotic societies, she was also a leader in Presbyterian “Women of the Church” at all levels.  Her only survivor is a nephew, James S. Somerville with family, except for numerous cousins.  Her Revolutionary ancestors appeared in the 1790 census of Chester County, South Carolina at Lockert Shoals of the east bank of Broad River.  Living there in adjoining households were Capt. James Love III [1763-1807], Drury Going and Col. Aaron Lockert who changed the spelling of his name [Lockhart] since his parents and brothers in Pennsylvania were all Tories.

Capt. James Love and his brother, William Love were married to daughters of Col. Lockert, as did Drury Going who reared the captain’s orphan son, Drennan Love as a foster brother to his daughter, Jane E. Going Hughes.  Drennan Love in 1827 was married to Betsy Cook, granddaughter of Drury Going.  Twelve children, nine sons and three daughters, were born to the couple.  Moreover, John Lockert was guardian of nephews, the captain’s sons Aaron Love, John Love and David Love, hence the close connection of these pioneer families for over 100 years, notably in the area they helped to develop along the Alabama-Mississippi state line.  There they prospered as cotton planters with antebellum mansions and where Evelyn Somerville is buried in Franconia churchyard in Pickins County, Alabama.”

Eli Thomas Going, son of Job Isaac Going and Rebecca Lockert Going, was born at Flat Rock June 29, 1816.  He was brought to Tuscaloosa County in 1823.  He was mentioned in the Tuscaloosa County Orphans Court Book 1, page 84 as an heir in his father’s estate.  He removed with his mother to Pickens County in 1835.  On October 14, 1838 he was received into Oak Grove Presbyterian Church.  He was baptized November 25, 1838.

On January 18, 1839 he was married to Jane M. Somerville, third child of John Somerville and Sarah Hood Somerville, who was born April 5, 1815 in South Carolina.  John Somerville was one of three brothers who lived in Kershaw District.  He was born in South Carolina December 11, 1780 and died in Pickens County August 14, 1857, according to Mrs. Eddie R. Reed, Aliceville, Alabama who later owned John Somerville’s bible.  Sarah Hood Somerville was born in South Carolina June 30, 1785 and died in Pickens County February 25, 1867.  Both were buried at Oak Grove Presbyterian Church Cemetery near Aliceville.

John Somerville was a brother to Hugh Somerville who was born in 1780.  Both married daughters of William Hood of Beaver Creek Township, Kershaw County.  William Hood left a will in Kershaw County signed October 5, 1827, according to the research of Leonard Andrea, Columbia, South Carolina.

In 1842 Eli Thomas Going was a deacon at Oak Grove Presbyterian Church.  He and his wife were carried on the church roll in April 1843.

Eli Thomas Going and Jane M. Somerville in 1852 continued to live at Pleasant Grove.  In 1868, Rev.
