I am looking forward to this discussion - am a descendant of William - my brother is a DNA match at 67 markers. Family went CT -> NY -> MI -> Surry County VA. While living in NY, my G Grandfather was in the Army of the Potomac and went to SE VA during the war. For "some" reason, he thought it desirable to move there late 1800s even though he was a yankee -- have often wondered if he knew his neighbor Goodrichs in Surry were probably cousins! (or maybe it was the weather - he got consumption while in the Army).

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: LWCates Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.goodrich/1421/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Over the years, there has been a lengthy dialogue about the family of origin of Lt. Col. Thomas Goodrich of Rappahannock in Virginia. Up until now, the focus has been on the Goodrick family of Ribston in Yorkshire, but it would appear, due to DNA test results that include a descendant or two of Thomas (follow this link: http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/goodrich/ ), that he matches up with the Goodriches of western Suffolk, including individuals who settled in Connecticut and originated in Hessett (or Hegessett) in that shire. Oh, the marvels of DNA! Thomas gave us testimony of his age, suggesting in a Lower Norfolk County deposition that he was born about 1614 or 1615. According to christenings recorded in the IGI, there are two Thomas Goodriches in Suffolk who might fit this bill [of course, not a comprehensive source]. Both hold some promise and both lived within a few miles of the Hessett Goodriches. ONE is the family of Thomas Goodrich in the parish of Lavenham. He had a son Thomas (chr. 1 May 1615). He had other children christened named Mary (chr. 1634, d. 1636), William (chr. 1623; d. 1627), John (chr. 1617), Abram (chr. 1631) and Joseph (chr. 1628). Other men christening children in the town included John and Robert at this period. Thomas would obviously have been one of the older children, perhaps the oldest. ANOTHER is the family of John Goodrich, feltmaker and Alderman of the town of Bury St. Edmunds. His will and list of children follow.

He would be executor when he reached the age of majority, but until then his uncle Robert and his father's friend, Mr. Allington would look out for the estate. The tenement purchased from John and Margaret Bull is interesting. Margaret was the remarried widow of Thomas Goodrich, Gentleman, of Clifford's Inn, London, who died about 1597 and owned the manor of Hardwick in Suffolk. So there must have been a close connection between Thomas Goodrich and John Goodrich. We also know that John Goodrich had a brother named Robert Goodrich. The fact that he named a son Francis and had a brother named Robert is also interesting from the point of view that he may have been a grandson of Francis Pynner, Gent., of Bury, whose very lengthy and widely publicized will of 1639 mentions a grandson Robert Goodrich and a great gra! ndson Francis Goodrich. Well, there is something to be said in favor of either of these two possibilities. In both cases, the ages match almost exactly. The DNA testing would point toward a family of this particular locale. The fact that Thomas of John was not his father's principal heir and might have been driven to find opportunities in America is a salient point. Another key point is that in each case, children in the family share names with one or two of the children of Lt. Col. Thomas Goodrich--in one case, Benjamin and Ann, and in the other case, Joseph. Finally, in the case of John Goodrich's Thomas, we can see the possibility of status transferring from a father to son. Lt. Col. Goodrich was a prominent figure almost from his arrival in America and it is possible that due to his family's professional connections and position in local government he absorbed some of that status for himself. It is also interesting in both cases that there are John Goodriches in the family whose ages match that of the John who settled in Isle of Wight Co., VA, although I doubt very much that feltmaker John's son would have abandoned his opportunities in Bury St. Edmunds to travel to the New World, especially at such a young age.

After so many years of searching for my grandparents marriage record I have finally found it!! Mabel and Arthur Goodrich were married in Battle Creek while he was stationed at Fort Custer!!! A very nice gentlemen at the library sent me a copy of the record. Arthur was a soldier and Mabel was working as a pastry cook! I just wish I could find out where she was working and what she was doing in Battle Creek when her family was in Breedsville/Bloomingdale area. So no matter how hight that brick wall is....just keep working at it. Eventually it will fall down!!! Blessings, Rita Smallcombe Advertising/Marketing Director, Mayfaire & Derbyshire Ren.
