This section of our web site is still a work in progress.  The information contained here is substantial but it is still incomplete.  Ruby and Sandy have spent a good deal of time and money gathering this information.  They have done a wonderful job so far.  As additional information and or corrections need to be made we will endeavor to post those changes to this web site as so as possible.  The majority of this web site is set up using standard HTML documents, however some of the more detailed information may be in a PDF file format using Adobe Acrobat.  The main reason for using PDF files is three fold.  One, they take up less space and as a result load faster when browsing;  Secondly, PDF files can be searched for specific information such as a name or year; and finally, PDF files when printed do not distort and print as they appear on the web site.  If you do not have Adobe Acrobat reader installed on your pc, you can down load it free by clicking on the below link

As with any family, there are two branches that you must begin with.  In our family it is the Goldman and Fowler names.  Our father was Charles Ray Goldman and he was the second son of Charles Tolbert "Chad" Goldman and Ruby Forsythe.  Our mother was Dorothy Dean Fowler Goldman and her father was William Audie Fowler and her mother was Nettie Cranford.  The majority of our work will deal with the last names you see below and going backward to the early 1700's and beyond.

Ruby has put together a huge amount of information about the family.  It will be placed on this web site in two different forms.  One form will be an outline form, it has just names and dates of family  member back to around 1700's in most cases.  Then other from will be a more detailed document using PDF files or standard HTML, in which you will be able to find additional information about an individual.  Things like what they worked at, church involvement, community work, ect.
