She was born about 1820 a daughter of Mary Therrell and an unknown male Boan. The destruction of records during the Civil War has created a giant void and a sparse collection of records from which to obtain related data.
We know from the Revolutionary War pension application of Lucretia Therrell, widow of Moses Therrell that Mary Therrell Boan is the Mother of Alice Boan.
“…Certificate I wish made payable to her surviving children: Welthy Brown Abegail Therell and Mary Boan…”
Alice Boan and William Goodwin were married 17 August 1859 in Chesterfield, SC.
MARRIED: At the residence of the bride's mother, near Cheraw, on the 17th of August [1859], at 9 o'clock, A.M., by Rev. John Burdine, Mr. ALEXANDER GOODWIN and Miss ALICE BONE. [Cheraw gazette., August 24, 1859, Image/Page 2, Col. 5]
Alex and Alice are enumerated in her Mother, Mary Boan household in the 1860 Census for Chesterfield County.
Alex enlisted to serve in the Civil War on 1 January 1862 joining the 26th SC Regiment. He was wounded and captured on 10 July 1863 and died from Chronic diarrhea on 15 October 1864. He was buried in Grave 517 near the Prison Camp.
I have found no children born to this union. Alice lived with her sister Effie and brother-in-law William Thomas Goodwin until her death about 1883.
Alice Boan is my 2nd Great Grandaunt.
