Burton Going/Goin born about 1782 was named as one of the five youngest children in the will of Thomas Going, Sr. He was on the 1810 census of Randolph County as were Burgess, his brother, and Elizabeth, who may have been the sister named also in the will or his mother. Burton was listed as over 45 years indicating a birth date of between 1765 and 1784 as well as another male aged 10 to 16. Listed with him was a female in the same age bracket plus two females between 10 and 16. 1810 census, Randolph County, NC, Roll 38, p. 194. His name is not on the 1830 lists in Randolph County or in Claiborne County.

By 1836 Burton Goin was recorded buying land from Pleasant Goin, probably a nephew either the son Pleasant, son of Levi, or Pleasant, son of William. He also purchased land in 1840 from Samuel Moore.
