My Goodrich brickwall: I am looking for Asa Goodrich, father of Isaac Franklin Goodrich (b. Ohio 1846 or 1847 fought in Civil War d. August 1901 in Centralia, Washington). This is what I know: 1) Asa was married to Margaret Ent Minteer Goodrich (born PA 1811 - died Friday Oct. 6 1899 Lincoln Creek,Washington State, 89 years old ). I have copies of an indenture (August 12th 1851) between Peter and Jane Ent and "Asa Goodrich", over a piece of land. At the end of the document it states: "the above Asa Goodrich is not to sell the above land without the consent of Margaret Goodrich, his wife". Asa was her 2nd husband. 2) I believe Asa was 10 years younger than wife Margaret Ent Minteer Goodrich (born PA 1811 - died Washington State ). He was her 2nd husband. In the 1850 census Margaret is listed as age 38 and Asa Goodrich is listed with them with an age of 28, which may be a typo. 3) Asa and Margaret may have divorced when Isaac was young because Asa appears later in Indiana with a wife name Rachel Goodrich. There was another Andrew County Missouri indenture (26th of January 1860) witnessing that "Asa Goodrich "and Rachel Goodrich, his wife" of Marshall County Indiana conveyed and quit claim to Joseph Ent of Andrew County" (It appears to be the same land as in the above mentioned document and Margaret's name is also mentioned in the doc.) Anyone out there with an Asa and Rachel Goodrich in their line? -Linda [Surnames: Goodrich, Kellerman, Ent, Davis, Blakely, Fisk, Estalles, Rafferty, Knudson
Did Asa have any more sons besides Isaac? I am researching Ambert (Amy or Ama) Goodrich, born after the 1860 census to Lovet A.
