Goober does indeed have a brother, named Braden, in an RFD episode.  He's a 
brilliant engineer working in the space program.  

And, 99.9% of you will be surprised to learn that Goober also has two sisters!  
Their names are Pearl and Becky.  This was revealed in a pilot episode called 
"Goober and the Truckers' Paradise," a spinoff of TAGS that "didn't take."  The 
pilot episode aired exactly once, in May of 1978.  The theme song was performed 
by Ray Stevens.  To my knowledge, no copies of the pilot exist today.

>>> In the episode of Howard as the "Big Brother" (when he agrees to mentor a 
>>> teenage troubled boy and falls
for the boy's older sister), Goober mentions that he (Goober) is an only child. 
 However, I clearly remember
a show about Goober's brilliant brother.  This was probably in the Mayberry RFD 
series.
