Goat Man

i rember him i lived at hunley when he came through

Charles "Ches" McCartney,(1901?-1998) also known as the Goat Man, was a widely-seen itinerant wanderer who traveled up and down the eastern United States from 1930 to 1968 in a ramshackle wagon pulled by a team of goats. He claimed to have covered more than 100,000 miles and visited all states except Hawaii. He was a familiar sight to many travelers and vacationers during those years, and one difficult to not notice or remember.

I remember him i was just a kid and it excited me every time i saw him,my daddy would always stop and talk to him.he seemed to be a smart man.

I remember him in Moss many years ago when I went to school. I heard he was really a millionaire and did this for fun. Mentally challanged I would say, but having fun and living in filth and Money!!!
