As mayor, he also sat on Niagara Regional Council. He was the 6th generation to have lived there. The original owner of the farm was Francis Goring, who arrived at Fort Niagara in August 1776 at the age of 21 years, lived there during the American Revolution, and who was consequently knighted for starting one of the first schools in the Niagara area.
Sometime prior to 1782 he was granted various land grants, one being the original farm.
During World World War II, Goring was a bomber pilot, flying a Vickers Wellington. Upon his return, he obtained his engineering degree and worked in the power plant of General Motors of Saint Catharines.
Goring was active in local politics for many years, sitting on numerous boards, including the Niagara Parks Commission. Prior to 1970, he was a longtime municipal councillor in Niagara Township, including stints as both reeve and deputy reeve.
