The family was originally from Prussia ( specifically Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen ). The earliest Goats ancestor was Henrick Wilhelm Guesse who later changed his name to Goats. The earliest Goates ancestor was his son, George Goates, and this is documented in the 1800 Fairfield County, South Carolina Census. The earliest Guesse/Guess ancestor I could find was Johan Bartold Guesse. Here is the data on that family:

Johan Bartold Guesse
b. 1706 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
d. 1749 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
He married on 4/22/1726
Anna Catharina Hagmeister
b. 2/19/1708 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
She remarried to Johan Henrick Reitmeier on 10/18/1750 after Johan Bartold Guesse death.

Children of Johan Bartold Guesse and Anna Catharina Hagmeister:
Anna Catharina Guesse
Johan Hartog Guesse
Henrick Wilhelm Guesse
Catharina Ilsaben Guesse
Frantz Henrick Guesse
Anna Margaretha Guesse

Henrick Wilhelm Guesse
b. 6/27/1734 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
d. Abt. 1790 Camden District, Fairfield, South Carolina
He married Abt. 1760 in Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
Mary Eaves
b. 1740 Pruessen
d. 1800 Camden District, Fairfield, South Carolina

On 10/5/1766 the Henrick Wilhelm Guesse family Arrived CharlesTown, South Carolina on ship, Britannia. He was given a Plantation Land Grant of 300 acres by King George III of England dated Jan. 18, 1771. Later, ( 11/20/1818 ) when the land was sold, we find the name change of Guesse or Guess changed to Goats. Fairfield Couny, SC Deed Book B-B, pages 40 and 41. spells out the name change, "Hinrek Guess, or to render the name in English, Henry Goats." Some of the children retained the Guesse/Guess surname while others adopted the Goats/Goates surname. I have copies of the Land grant, wills, probates, and deeds to verify this.

Children of Henrick and Mary:
Philip Goats, b. 1761 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
Henry Guesse, b.1763 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
Peter Goats, b. 1765 Evangelisch, Exter, Westfallen, Pruessen
Amelia “Milly” Goats, b. 1767 Camden District, Fairfield, South Carolina
Mary Eaves Goats, b. 1768 Camden District, Fairfield, South Carolina
George Goates, b. 1770 Camden District, Fairfield, South Carolina

George Goates
