Hi, I found the following email from 2008 while googling and wondered if these folk are still on the list please. I have heard the name Thirza Goodman mentioned by my cousin whose Goodman family I am helping with and wondered if they may be able to help me. We are up to Thomas Goodman born c1784 or so, census say Suffolk but he was in Essex for his fiirst marraigfe 1808 to susannah Race. HIs second marraige was to Mary Ann Smith in 1825 still at Prittlewell and his 3rd to susannah Anderson, though the freebmd says Andrews so suspect her first married name. I am hoping this Thriza is an unknown child to Thomas and first wife or even his brothers daughter. I have ordered both the 3rd Marraige certificate for Thomas Goodman to Susannah Andrews/Andrews, also his death certificate in 1877 hoping to get some clues of his place of birth or parents or siblings names. Can anyone help please.
