Philip Goss IV and his wife Mary Kendall
This PAGE is devoted to the life of Philip Goss IV and his wife Mary Kendall and their descendants.
Philip Goss IV b. 1724 in Brookfield, died 1778 in Pennsylvania, married Mary Kendall in 1744. She died in 1821 about 100 years old in Pennsylvania.
Here is a summary of their children:
The children of Philip Goss IV and Mary (Kendall) Goss:
Here is a summary of their children:
NOTE: The birth dates of the 1st three children are 1745, 1746 and 1747. These are recorded in Simsbury, Connecticut; however, according to my timeline, as I have posted on this blog, for Philip Goss IV he was not really in Simsbury till 1748? See past posts about Philip and Mary by going to the PAGES that are a table of content for the posts I have already written.
—1. Sarah Goss born 4 July, 1745 probably Brookfield but recorded in Simsbury and died after 1820 burial unknown 18 April, 1821*in Huntington Twp., Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. She married Enos Seaward (Seward) on 31 October, 1765 in Granville. As far as I know they had 10 children: Enos, Eli, Amos, Gad, David, Levi, Sarah, Titus, Mary and Ebenezer. All were born in Granville, Massachusetts. Enos and Sarah did not migrate to Huntington Twp., till about 1793. *See posts on this couple.
—2. Philip Goss (Jr.) born 12 August, 1746 probably Brookfield but recorded in Simsbury died 25 October 25, 1833 in Harveyville, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. He and his wife Hannah Darby. As far as I know he had one son Philip but there may have been more children born to this couple.
—3. Experience Goss born 8 October, 1747 maybe in Simsbury, Connecticut. It was first thought that she died young but then the possibility that she married a Levi Baldwin of Connecticut about 1765 in Becket, Massachusetts was suggested. Paul H. Goss stated that she may have died in 1815 in Barnston, Quebec but this has not been verified.
—4. Nathaniel Goss (Sr.) born 26 January, 1749 Simsbury and died 27 September, 1812 in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. He is buried in the Scott/Waterton Cemetery. He married Hannah Scott about 1780. They had about 7 children: Experience, Philip (V), Rhoda, Hannah, Polly, John, and Nathaniel Jr.
This next child is a puzzle and not much is known about him:
—5. Comfort Goss born 1751 – There is a Comfort Goss mentioned in the records in the Wyoming Valley.
These children were born in Granville, Massachusetts:
—6. David Goss born 14 June, 1752 in Granville, Massachusetts and maybe died 1 November, 1778 in Nanticoke, Luzerne Co., Pennsylvania. He married Anna Slater about 1777 in Luzerne Co., Pennsylvania a son David Goss was born 1778. This is all in need of being verified.
—7. Solomon Goss born 16 June, 1754 in Granville and died 1825. Flora M. Osborn, a Goss Researcher, is of the line of Solomon and Olive (Scott) Goss through his son Levi Goss. The compiler of this blog is a descendant through the daughter Lydia, and a sister of Levi. Flora is closer to the compiler in the ancestry then Paul H. Goss. A great deal of the life of Solomon and his descendants has been posted in the past about his life in Ohio. I now need to write about Solomon’s early life and time in Pennsylvania. There is a Table of Contents of the posts already written in a PAGE at the top of this blog about Solomon and Olive (Scott) Goss and their children.
—8. Mary Goss born 1757 in Granville and died 1832 in Ohio – Paul H. Goss mentioned a Mary in his manuscripts but he was not sure about her relationship to the family and did not pursue any research on her. Several Cousins working on this line have contacted the compiler of this blog and shared their findings. This Mary married three times: 1) William Davidson, 2) Lemuel Gibbons and 3) a Valentine Santee. Her daughter Mary “Polly” Davidson married John Goss a son of Nathaniel Goss, Sr. The compiler has also done some of her own research so in a future posts that information will be shared.
One child was born in Becket, Massachusetts:
—9. Ebenezer Goss born 8 September, 1760 in Becket, Massachusetts and died 5 August, 1832 in Portage Co., Ohio and he married Bede Blakeslee. Paul Henry Goss, a researcher of the Goss Family, is a descendant of this man.

***************************************************************************
There are three ways to search this blog:
-
Use the Archive Box on the right side of the blog and find the month and year and click and it will give you a listing of posts written during that time. So if you use the dates below you can find the post you are looking for and see it in sequence. Blogs go from past dates to present so they are backwards from a book.
-
Use the Search box on the right of this blog to search using key words like a person’s name, the location, topics like Mayflower etc.
-
Seek out the Categories which I have tried to organize by surname, cemeteries, locations and subjects. The list is auto alphabetical within the grouping, so you need to scroll looking for what you want. There is a number next to the category telling you approximately how many posts that have been published for that category. It may not find all references to the keyword you are using, although I strive to be careful and diligent.
-
Blogs are backwards from a book, so the oldest posts are the first. So you could technically go back to the beginning and go forward through the blog. I strive to do the genealogy in a chronological manner but not always for this is also a story about their lives and family connections which make it very complicated. When I start writing about a family, I do a summary post of the family of a specific couple listing their children and then try to follow it with more detailed posts about the children and their families if it works within the concept of the blog. If you see revisiting in the title it means I have found new information or am going back to that person or couple and adding more detail.

Philip Goss IV and his wife Mary Kendall
Boston Post Road, from Wikipedia
How did Philip Goss IV migrate from Brookfield/Lancaster to Simsbury and Granville. He probably took some of the routes shown above. Springfield was a settled town so going through there would be one way of getting to Connecticut or western Massachusetts.

This brings to and end the life of Philip Goss IV. From 1780 onward his children are the focus and it is their stories that are of interest to us. Philip Goss IV will still be referred to because he left his legacy for his children to sort out. His wife Mary lived a long time after his death and that will be shared later in context of their children.

Note: David is really the 2nd child born to Ebenezer and Bede but I have delayed him because he is Paul H. Goss’s great grandfather and I think it is fitting that the research on Philip Goss IV and Mary Kendall should come to a stopping place with this family line.

A Celebration, a little review of Philip Goss IV and a little break…! February 21, 2021 – I have reached a stopping place in the research on Philip Goss IV and Mary Kendall. I have shared a lot in 3 years of working on this couple and their descendants. I will take a break for a month+ and when I do I will be working on another Philip Goss who I call Philip Goss III. He married Keziah Cooley. I have another page for him and will start a table of contents for his posts.
