NOAH GOYNE, one of the pioneer settlers of Grand Forks, had one of the best cultivated tracts of land in ND. He resided in section 27, in Grand Forks township, and had acquired a fine property and an enviable reputation.
Our subject was a native of Durham,ON and was born August 21, 1845. His parents, John and Margret (Rogers) Goyne, were natives of Cornwall,England, and the father was a carpenter and emigrated to Canda about 1839 and passed the remainder of his life there. His died in 1883, aged sixty-six years, and the mother died in 1887. One son and four daughters were born to them. The grandfather of our subject, Richard Goyne, lived and died in England, and was a farmer by occupation.
Mr. Goyne was reared and educated in Canada and followed farming there until 1878, when he went to Grand Forks, ND and entered a homestead claim to land in Walle township, upon which he proved his claim and later sold the land. He went to his present home in 1891, and now has six hundred acres of land, all of which is under high cultivation and is made to yield abundantly. He has added valuable improvements to the place, and every appointment bespeaks thrift and good management.
Our subject is married, in 1869, to Mary A. Goudge, a native of WI,. Mrs. Goyne's parents were natives of Cornwall,England, and settled in WI,. Mr. and Mrs. Goyne are the parents of six children, as follows: John B.; Sarah E., now Mrs. C. H. Austin; Fred C.; William M.; Milton E. and Renee E., all of whom are living. Mr. Goyne is active in public affairs and has served as supervisor of his township and school clerk. He assisted in the organization of Grand Forks township and is an earnest worker for the better interests of his community, financially and socially. Politically he is a Democrat and is firm in his convictions, and has been prominently identified with the movements of his party in his township. He has made a success of his life work and well merits his high standing.
