I am having problems finding any information on Andrew Goodrich. I believe his father was Gideon Goodrich but I don't have any documents stating this..Just word of mouth.. Andrew married Mary Pierce on Sept 29 1811 in Hartford Conn. They had a son Henry born 1822 in Conn and died 1890 in Hampden Co Mass. I don't know if Andrew and Mary had any other children. Andrew isn't listed in the Goodrich book... This is my brick wall..

Minor correction to the above posting - Moses and Asenath resided in Pittsfield MA in the 1780s, not the 1880s. The rest of the posting is correct. Kay Waterloo

Well, Allegedly, Samuel went to Nebraska (who knows). Don't have death cert on him. William George stayed in Illinois moving to Peoria in his teens, died in 1963. Emery supposedly joined mililtary, lied about his age, when they found out, kicked him out. Don't know what name he used when he joined. We do have a picture of him in military uniform. Emery was killed at a young age in Montana in railroad accident.

My great-grandfather was Charles Edwin Goodrich, b. 1847 in Hartland, McHenry Co, IL as 2nd son to Charles W. and Electa Burke Goodrich. (Case only lists the first son George N.) He enlisted in the Civil War from NY, later moving to NYC, Jersey City NJ, and Brooklyn NY. His occupation was flour futures, or flour salesman. He was married in 1879 to Annie Lewis Thompson and had 5 daughters--the middle one was my grandmother. After 1893 he disappeared leaving huge gambling debts and his wife & children never knew what happened to him. His mother stated in 1900 that she had 5 children with only 2 living (2 daughters who are well-documented). The family thought he was either dead or escaped to Canada. His sister, Charlotte Goodrich Howard, living near Rochester, NY, always kept in touch with his family. I would dearly love to know what happened to him. He was only 53 in 1900 so could have started a whole new family, perhaps with a new name. Pam

Have you looked at the Philo Goodrich family in Delaware County? I'm pretty sure that was where I saw Philo -- he was not my line; but you might try to look at it from the top down.
