    Daniel Goins, born about 1741 of parents unknown, was one of the earliest residents of Washington County, Virginia which was organized in 1776-77 with land taken from Mont-gomery and Fincastle counties.  Daniel Goins found himself a resident of Russell County when it was formed from Washing-ton County in 1785.  He continued in that area about 1786 when a son, Isham Goins was born.  When Lee County was formed in 1792 in the extreme western tip of Virginia from Washington and Russell Counties, Daniel Goins again found himself in a new county.
