Goshen is an Oldham county town on US 42 west of La Grange. The area was settled early in the nineteenth century and a community known as Saltillo, named for the city in Mexico, was located at the site by 1849. A Harmony Landing post office opened in 1833 west of the town on the Ohio River and moved to the town in 1851, taking the name Goshen from a local church. The population in 1990 was 2,447.
