Goshen, named for the biblical Land of Goshen, is one of the oldest communities in Pike County, organized in the 1820s. Elam Primitive Baptist Church was established here in 1830, one of the earliest institutions in the town and county, and a post office called Goshen has operated since 1839. During the Civil War the fields around Goshen Hill served as training grounds for Confederate soldiers.
When the railroad came through in 1890, the old settlement of Goshen Hill moved closer to the tracks and became simply Goshen. The railroad brought new residents along with a school, a cotton gin, a sawmill, a post office and several stores. A petition to incorporate the town passed easily in 1905, and a second petition, for reasons now unknown, was filed in 1907, the year Wikipedia gives for its incorporation.
