Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Goes family history? Bavaria, Germany is the original homeland of the Goes family. Goes is a patronymic name, a type of surname that derived from the given name of the father of the original bearer. Goes was derived from the given name Gosse, from the German noun of the same spelling, which means God.One can encounter great variation in the spelling of surnames: in early times, spelling in general, and thus the spelling of names was not yet standardized; and later, spellings would change with branching and movement of families. Variations of the name Goes include Goss, Gosse, Gos, Gose, Goes, Goess, Goz, Goss, Göss, Gosse and many more. First found in Bavaria, where since ancient times the Goss family made significant contributions to the advancement of the district's feudal society. Being prominent in social affairs, the family Goss was closely associated to the turbulent events of the period and therefore formed alliances with other distinguished families of the region.

Analysis of immigration records has shown some of the first Goess to arrive in North America, and among them were: Goes Settlers in the United States in the 18th Century
