INTRODUCTION..
In " the sixties " the late Captain William Frederick-
Goodwin, of Concord, N. II.., who died in 1872, began
preparing a genealogy of the descendants of Daniel Good-
win, who settled in Kittery, Maine, about 1652. He
published some of his notes in his history of " Xarnigan-
sett Number One, now Buxton, Maine," and also in the
October, 1868, number of Dawson's "Historical Maga-
zine."
In the search for my own ancestry, commenced a few years
ago, I found traces of Captain Goodwin's work and finally
obtained his four volumes of manuscript books through
the courtesy of Miss Alice Pea body Goodwin, of Frank-
lin Falls, N. II., and Miss Sarah Louise Kimball, of San
Francisco, to which I have made numerous additions and
from which most of the following data is taken. Much
remains to be done before these generations are wholly
correct, and this part of the collection is printed in the
hope of obtaining corrections and needful information and
is not issued as an authoritative r> cord.
The ancestry of Danfel Goodwin, the Immigrant, is in
doubt. Captain Goodwin states that Daniel' slat her and
grandfather were both Daniel Goodwin, the former marry-
ing Dorothy Barker and the latter being of Great Oakley,
Sussex Co., England. Unfortunately for this statement,
Mr. Henry F. Waters, the well-known genealogist, shows
in his Introduction to "The Goodwins of Hartford,
Conn.," that Daniel Goodwin, who married Dorothy
Barker, was a son of John Goodwin and not of Daniel
iv INTRODUCTION.
Goodwin, of Great Oakley, and Mr. Waters' "Gleanings"
disclose the fact that Daniel Goodwin, of Great Oakley,
had neither a son nor a grandson named Daniel.
I myself am inclined to the opinion that Daniel Good-
Avin, of Kitteiy, Maine, was a brother of Richard Good-
win, of Gloucester, Mass., and that they were sons of
Bridget Goodwin*, who afterwards married Henry Travers,
and later still, Richard Window, and that her Goodwin
husband was one of the Torrington, England, Goodwin
family. Briefly, my reasons are these: Tradition says
Daniel came to Kitteiy, Me., from Massachusetts, leaving
brothers behind him near Plymouth. Richard Goodwin,
of Gloucester, about the same age as Daniel, had, among
other children, a Daniel and a Richard, Jr. This Richard
Jr. settled in Newbury, Mass., and had also a Richard
:and a Daniel, of 1711. This latter child is not given by
Savage in his Genealogical Dictionary, but Captain Good-
win's record states positively that this Daniel of 1711 was
a son of Richard, of Newbury. I have found the descend-
ants of this Daniel of 1711, who are now living in Nova
Scotia, and they say that the ancestors of Daniel of
1711 came from Plymouth, England, near Avhere the Tor-
rington branch of the Goodwin family had resided for
generations. This seems to fix the family of Richard, of
Gloucester, as being from near Plymouth, England,
and as Daniel, of Kittery, had a sou Daniel and grandsons
Richard and Daniel, and, as tradition says he left brothers
near Plymouth, 1 am inclined to think that it was
England and not j\la*mchu$ettz, and that this tradition,
taken with the constant repetition of the names of Richard
*Bridget Goodwin was certainly the mother of Richard Goodwin, and died in
Gloucester. Mass.. her estate being appraised August 9, 1673. Richard was
younger than Daniel and perhaps remained with his mother when Daniel left,
home, if my supposition of relationship is correct.
INTRODUCTION. v
and Daniel in both families, indicates strongly that the first
Daniel and Richard were brothers from Plymouth, Eng-
land. Perhaps Mr. Waters will be able to learn the
name of the husband of Bridget Goodwin and t e birth
records of his family. Complete records of the Torring-
ton family are in existence in the possession of Rev.
Augustus Jessup, Seaming, England, but my letters to
him remain unanswered.
Captain Goodwin could not identify Abiel Goodwin, of
York Co., Me. , but gave him in " Narragansett Number
One" as from Reading, Conn. He was from Reading,
J/ass., and was a descendant of Christopher Goodwin, of
Charlestown, Mass.
No attempt is made in the following pages to do more
than give in the briefest form the family records. Bio-
graphical data is omitted entirely. No information con-
cerning families of the daughters of each generation has
been collected.
The expense of this publication has been borne b}' Mr.
"William Hobbs Goodwin, Jr., of Boston; Mr. Almon
Goodwin, of New York; Mr. Harold Goodwin, of Phila-
delphia, and Mr. Warren Foster Goodwin, of Chicago.
The thanks of the entire Goodwin family are due to Mr.
James J. Goodwin, of Hartford and New York, a descendant
of Ozias Goodwin, who has published the " Goodwins of
Hartford, Conn.," who made it possible for Dr. Tyler,
President of "William and Mary College, to publish my
manuscript records of the " Goodwins of Virginia" and
who has contributed to the publication of this pamphlet;
and to Rev. George Lewis, of South Berwick, who has so
patiently copied the old records for me, corrected the
many errors and courteously and promptly answered my
many letters, I render public thanks.
vi INTRODUCTION.
While the Goodwins of Maine seem not to be related to'
my own family, I have taken considerable pleasure
in the acquaintance the preparation of this work has made
me, and trust that the family will accept the results with
renewed assurances of my most distinguished considera-
tion.
Respectfully,
John S. Goodwin.

GOODWIN FAMILIES OF NEW ENGLAND.
It may save confusion if brief mention is made of the
immigrants who have left Goodwin families in New Enc
land. It is exceptionally difficult to keep the tribes sep-
arate in New Hampshire and Vermont, for in some in-
stances three different families have had representatives in
the same town. The " three brother" story is of course
long since discredited.
1632. William and Ozias Goodwin, brothers, settled
eventually in Hartford, Conn. A genealogy of this
family has been published — " The Goodwins of Hartford,
Conn.," by Mr. James J. Goodwin, of Hartford.
1633. — Christopher Goodwin settled in Charlestown,
Mass. His descendants removed to Boston, Reading and
Marblehead, Mass., and York, Me.
1652. — Daniel Goodwin settled in Kittery, Maine.
1660. — Richard Goodwin resided in Gloucester, Essex
County, Mass., marrying in 1666. His descendants re-
side principally in Newbury and Rowley, Mass., and in
North Yarmouth, Maine, where the name is Gooding.
1660.— Edward Goodwin resided in Amesbury, and his
son, Richard, in Salisbury, Essex County, Mass. Family
is widely scattered through New Hampshire and Ver-
mont.
1712. John Goodwin settled in Boston. Descendants
in Dresden and Fairfield, Maine.
1713. — William Goodwin, brother of John, settled in
Marblehead, Mass.
THE GOODWINS
OF
KITTERY, YORK COUNTY, MAINE.
Daniel Goodwin was in Kittery, York Co., Maine,
in 1652. He married, first, in Kittery, Margaret Spen-
cer,' daughter of Thomas and Patience (Chadbourne)
Spencer; she was a daughter of William Chadbourne.
Daniel married, second, after March 1670, Sarah Sanders,
widow of Peter Turbet. Daniel died about 1712. He
was a surveyor, an innkeeper and a large landed pro-
prietor.

in 1775." This tallies very closely with his age, but see
James 21. Data of the descendants, if any, of this
James, greatly desired.
6 Miles Goodwin {/I mid .!, Daniel 1), born July 31,
16S7, in Berwick; baptized in Berwick, August 12, 173G.
His children were baptized in Berwick the following
month. Wife's name not given at baptism, indicating her
previous death. John, Samuel and Miles Goodwin were
petitioners in 1752 at Penobscot; perhaps this Miles. I
can not identify positively either John or Samuel. Evi-
dently we are missing some children of the third gener-
ation.

sec in s to be the Caleb who took land in Arun lei, Me.,
January 14, 1754, settling thereafter in Bowdoinham.
Family tradition says that the Caleb of Bowdoinham
was born in Scotland, came to America with his two
brothers, had a son Caleb, Jr. and three daughters, and
lived in Clinton and Fairfield, Me.; that Caleb, Jr., was
taken by an uncle when he was seven years old from Ban-
gor, Me., to Clinton, " to prevent the English authorities
from carrying him back to England." Tradition fails to
chronicle the heinous crime of this seven-year-old fugitive
from justice. I think the true explanation is that Caleb,
Sr., was son of Miles 6, and had the two brothers, Daniel
.and Stephen, and that Stephen took his nephew, Caleb,
Jr., at the age of seven, Caleb, Sr. , perhaps being
then dead. I find that Stephen and Caleb, Jr., were both
living in Castine in 1763, and that Caleb, Jr., with his
wife and eight children left Castine in 1770. I also find
that an Abigail Goodwin, born in 1763, was married in
Fairfield in 1782 to David Emory. Her ten children are
given on page 57, Emery Genealogy. I show her hero as
one of the three daughters of Caleb, but she may have
been a niece, or what is still more likely, a grand-daugh-
ter of Daniel or Stephen.

•.9 Daniel Goodwin {Miles 6, Daniel 0, Daniel 1),

into the < ' Eastern Country " and is wholly untraced. A
Daniel Goodwin married Prudence Wyman in Brunswick,
Me., March 11, 1758 ( Vol. 4, Bangor Hist. Mag.) I
can not find any other Daniel than this of age to marry
in 1758.
10 Stephen Goodwin [Miles 6, Daniel 2, Daniel i),
baptized September 28, 1736, in Berwick, is probably the
Stephen Goodwin who was living, October 3, 1763, on
Bagaduce Bay, now known as Castine, Me. Descend-

11 Nathaniel Goodwin (Daniel 2, Daniel 7), born Oc-
tober 29, 1689, in Berwick, married Mary and
resided in Berwick. I think he had other children, Paul
and Joshua, older than the ones given here, who went to
Wells, Me., and perhaps John, Jr., who married Martha
Nason, was another son. I cannot otherwise connect any
of the AVells families with the Immigrant. The Ber-

where he died.

that a Samuel Goodwin was one of the witnesses to a
treaty with certain Indian tribes at Casco Bay, October

•at Falmouth on July 2, 1754.

Mills of Waterborough, in January, 1800. He was born
October 12, 1770 in Biddeford, a son of Eligood and
Mary (Dyer) Mills. He was a farmer. He died in
West Brooksville, May 11, 1836. She died in Cape Eliza-
beth November IS, 1528.
*lt seems probable that this statement of ancestry of Sarah Butler is incorrect.
Dr. Butier thinks her mother, Sarah Goodwin, was Sarah, born in 1722, the
daughter of Daniel Goodwin 3 and not the daughter of Adam, but a Bible entry
gives Sarah Goodwin's birth at 1729. A family tradition says that Moses Butler
on February 7, 1750, married Sarah Goodwin, born in 1729, the sister to Amaziah,
by whom he had among others a daughter Sarah. That when Moses Butler and
his wife removed to Frenchman's Bay in 17(54, they left this young daughter with
her grandfather. Samuel Goodwin, 15, and that she afterwards, in 1778, became
the second wife of her half-uncle, Amaziah Goodwin 20. This tradition is borne
•out by the records:— "Amaziah Goodwin of York, and Sarah Butler of a place
■called Frenchman's Bay, now resident in York.''

settled in Dover and had a son James 5 born in 1724.
There was a James Goodwin of Newmarket, Rockingham^
County, N. H., "aged 50 in 1775," which so accurately
described James 5 in age that it seemed probable he had
gone to Newmarket from Dover; but other records show
that James Goodwin and James Goodwin, Jr., were in
Newmarket as early as November 21, 1746. This indi-
cates positively an older James than James 5. It is
possible that James 21 may have settled in Newmarket,
and in 1746, then 49 years of age, have a son old euoughi
THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE. 25-
to be mentioned as James,, Jr., born in 1725, and 50
years old in 1775. James, Jr., might also be the James
5, "junior," to his uncle James 21. It should also be
noted that a James Gooding, (a very common way of
writing the name Goodwin in early days), married Eliza-
beth and resided in Portland, Me. , having three
daughters: I. Margaret, born June 13, 1733; 1 1. Sarah,,
born March 7, 1835, and III. Sarah, born February 20,
1737. I cannot yet identify definitely these several men
bearing the name James..

@4 & E. H. db G. R.) Descendants, if any, untraced-
If this man's family record could be obtained it would
doubtless clear up a number of obscure points. I am
strongly inclined to think that he married Hannah Wells-
for a second wife. See Appendix A. and diagram.
26 THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE.
II.
DESCENDANTS OF THE SECOND SON OF DANIEL,
THE IMMIGRANT.
.23 James Goodwin (second son of Daniel i), was married
December 9, 1686, in Berwick, to Sarah Thompson,
daughter of Miles Thompson. He resided in Berwick and
died there July 31, 1697. It was his widow and not
Sarah, the second wife of Daniel 1, as Captain Goodwin
supposed, who was the "widow Sarah Goodwin" ad-
mitted to church in 1703, as Daniel 1 was then alive. No
children have been credited to this James by Captain
Goodwin or in any records, but there are so many
branches of the Goodwins of Maine which cannot trace to
Daniel and the other children of Daniel are so thoroughly
indentified that the only possible explanation is that this
James had several children. Certainly " Mary, daughter
of Sarah Goodwin, baptized April 5, 1703 " (Berwick
Records), was this man's child.
I have therefore taken the liberty of giving this man
just the family he needed to help me out. He has been
dead too long to object, and, unless subsequent investiga-
tions make it appear that it was not necessary for him to
have had so many children, I shall always think he should
have had them. His failure to write down the facts con-
cerning himself and family has been the cause of most of
•our woes. The N. E. H. & G. R., Vol. 23 or 24, says,
•"John Davis, of Bristol in Great Brittaine, and Mary
Gooding, of Necks vvamick, were married 23rd of Octo-
ber, 1718." I can find no other Mary of marrying age

than the one baptized April 15, 1703, and I so dispose of
her.

descendants removed to Lebanon, Me., and they were
claimed as relatives by the other Maine Goodwins. I
know not whose son he was unless of James 23. See also

lationship with the Kittery family.
Elisha Hayes of Lebanon wrote Captain Goodwin in
1871 that Samuel Goodwin, born 1753 and married Sarah
Hodsdon, was a cousin to Thomas Goodwin who married
Anna Hodsdon, sister to Sarah. This statement was evi-
dently a mistake as Thomas Goodwin was the son of
Elisha 36, who was eldest son of Thomas 35 (son of
Thomas 34), and this Thomas 35 had no son Richard, so
28 THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE.
far as my investigation goes. Thomas 34, third son of
iDaniel 1, married Mehitable Plaisted perhaps about
1685-7. She was captured by the Indians in 1689-90
and then had an infant son whom the Indians killed. She
was a prisoner for five years, returning in 1695. She
had son, Thomas 35, in 1697. Captain Goodwin's records
show that Samuel, born 1753, was a son of Richard 25,
and the Dover records show Richard 25 as a son of Richard
24, who was undoubtedly a grandson of Daniel 1, but
unless Richard 24 was the son Thomas and Mehitable
before her capture, which seems unlikely, I can only ac-
count for him as a supposed son of James 23.

26 John Goodwin {James *£3, Daniel 1) was a peti-

that name of the third generation and sons of Daniel 2.

can I find a John of their generation except their cousin,
John 58, who. married Patience Willoughby and resided in

who married Mary Crafts in New York, settling in Auburn, Ohio, where he died
in 1844. His youngest son, Hon. James A. Goodwin, resides at Spencer, Iowa.
Full data of this branch is given on pages 205 et seq. of the Crafts' Genealogy.

Berwick. Inasmuch as this John was contemporary with
Miles and Samuel and was not their brother, there is only
one conclusion to be drawn and that is that he was a son
of one of their father's brothers, and the only one to
whom he could belong as far as our knowledge now goes
is to James 23.
27 James Goodwin {Ja/rries 23, Daniel T) is given simply as
a guess. We have record that a James Goodwin was born
in Dover in 1724, who might have been of Newmarket,
N. H. , in 1775; but who would have been too young to
have been the Portland, Me., James of 1733. James
Goodwin 21 may have been the senior of the James and
James, Jr. , "being in Newmarket in 1716." This leaves
the James Gooding of Portland, who had children in
1733-35-37, unaccounted for. I suggest, pending fur-
ther investigation, that the James Gooding of Portland,
who married Elizabeth , may have been a son of
James 23. Whether so or not, James of Portland had

junior to his uncle, Thomas 31, or to his cousin, Thomas
35. He is called "Senior " in 1721), .according to Cap-
tain Goodwin's copy, but Rev. George Lewis copies
it for me as "Junior." I simply cannot place him, un-
less he wrere a son of James 23, as Thomas 22, son of
Daniel 2, married Abigail Seward, and Thomas 35,
son of Thomas 31, married Elizabeth Butler, and these

two, Daniel 2 and Thomas 34, were the only sons of
Daniel 1 who had sons named Thomas, unless Daniel's
son James 23 had such a son. I think Thomas 28 was a
son of this James 23. Thomas resided in Berwick.

adults. The ancestry of Daniel 31 seemed beyond find-
ing out until I chanced upon this entry in the Berwick
church records: "Sept. 3, 1757, Hannah Goodwin,
grand-daughter of Thomas, Jr. and Elizabeth (Abbot),
upon this account was baptized. " From Captain Good-

win's record I learned that this Daniel 31 had a
daughter, Hannah, born between Thomas, 1T56, and
Daniel, 1759, and from these two records it appears that
Daniel Goodwin's daughter, Hannah, was grand-daughter
of Thomas 28 though it does not appear why the grand-
parents offered her for baptism — unless to help us out in

.'32 Gideon Goodwin {Thomas 28, James 23, Daniel 1),

{Page 6^8, Vol. 18, K E. II. & G. R.), as being in New
Hampshire in 1761-2. A Gideon Goodwin, Jr., married
" Ellis" Ay res in Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. 17, 1785.
The June, 1898, Putnam's Historical Magazine, page
178, says Gideon Gooding married Elizabeth Jenkins
Aug. 17, 1753, in Portsmouth, N. H. (South Parish).
This seems to be our Gideon 32 and Gideon, Jr., was
probably a child of this marriage.
53 Thomas Goodwin (Thomas 28, James 23, Daniel 1),
was baptized October 5, 1732, in South Berwick. I can-
not give the name of his wife with certainty, but I think
he is the Thomas who married Mary Hicks in South Ber-

wick July 29, 1754. The date and place point to him
strongly. No further data of him or of the Thomas —
Mary Hicks marriage. See diagram in Appendix A.
I think the reader will agree with me that it is a matter
of necessity to give James 23 a family, so as to provide
for all of the foregoing Goodwins who are undoubtedly
descendants of Daniel of Kittery, but whose descent I
cannot trace unless the above suppositions are reasonably
correct.

DESCENDANTS OF THE THIRD SON OF DANIEL, THE
IMMIGRANT.
34 Thomas Goodwin (Daniel 1) was born in Kittery. He
married about 1685 Mehitable Plaisted,3 daughter of
Lieut. Roger Plaisted,2 Ichabod.1 In 1689-90 Mehit-
able was taken captive by the Indians, together with her
infant son whom the Indians killed. She was kept a cap-
tive for five years and then returned to Berwick. In De-
cember, 1711, Daniel Goodwin 1 .and Sarah, his wife,
made a deed to Thomas. He was known as Ensign
Thomas. It has been impossible to get full data of his
children. Olive, Mary and Bial.are given on authority of
the Berwick church records; Thomas, Ichabod and James
are given in Captain Goodwin's records. Moses Cooper
(b. 1787) wrote Captain Goodwin in 1S67 that his grand-
father, John Cooper, married Ichabod' s sister, who was
then the widow Abbott, and that another sister married a
Shapleigh of Eliot. A grandson of Ichabod states there
was another sister who married a Davis. The A7". E. H.
THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE. 3£
& G. B.,pg. 359, Vol. 24, says "Timothy Davis of Ports-
mouth, and Olive Goodwin of Berwick, married Decem-
ber 7, 1727." Also "John Davis of Bristol, in Great
Britain, and Mary Gooding of Neckswamick, were married
23 October, 1718. " I think this last must be an older
Mary than the daughter of Thomas 34 — perhaps " Mary,
baptized April 15, 1703 " by Sarah, widow of James
Goodwin, 23. Perhaps Mary, daughter of Thomas,,
married first, Mr. Abbott; second John Cooper. I have so
shown her in the list but I cannot be certain that she was
not the one who married Mr. Shapleigh. The data con-
cerning the sons of Thomas 34 seem to be positive and
beyond dispute.

Butler. The " Butler Genealogy" confuses the children
of Thomas Goodwin 28 and Elizabeth Abbott with
Thomas Goodwin 35 and Elizabeth Butler and gives all
the Abbott children and none of the Batter ones. Captain
Goodwin omits the eighth, ninth and twelfth child, but
the Berwick church records say they were baptized by
Thomas and Elizabeth, and Moses, the fourth child, in
his will in 1766, mentions the twelfth child as "Sister
Mollie," so I put them all in. It makes a big family in

37 Thomas Goodwin (Thomas 35, Thomas 34-, Daniel 1),
baptized October 9, 1726, in South Berwick, 1 cannot
trace. I tried to make him the ancestor of the Wells
family, but that Thomas married about 1732. I have
even tried to do him the honor of making him my ancestor,
see Appendix V, but I cannot trace him out of Maine into
Pennsylvania or Maryland, as I can his cousins, Ichabod's
children, so I abandon him to his fate. It seems probable
that he is the Thomas who married Mary Hicks or else
the Thomas who married Eunice Lord and Mehitable
Goodwin.
38 Reuben Goodwin (Th omas 35, Thomas 34, Daniel 1),
baptized in South Berwick October 29, 1736, by Thomas
and Elizabeth Goodwin is untraced. Moses 49 and Amy
baptized a son Reuben April 27, 1731, and a Reuben
Goodwin married Hannah Abbot September 2, 1756. I
think it more likely that this was the son of Moses as he
was then 22 while Thomas' son was only 20, both rather
young for marrying, but Moses' son having the better
right. I cannot trace the children, if any, of this mar-
riage. A Reuben Goodwin sold land February 13, 1788,
at mouth of Marsh River, (Penobscot).
.39 Captain James Goodwin (Thomas 35, Thomas 34,

Silas Goodwin (James 43, Thomas 34, Daniel 1),

1780, to Isabella Bragdon of York, secondly to Anna
Clement of Dover, N. H. His daughter Sallie served
for many years in the office of Register of Deeds of York
County, under Hon. Jeremiah Goodwin. My data shows
Silas was married in 1800 the second time, but all his
children are given under the first marriage. Of course if
date of second marriage is correct then Amos and perhaps
Isabella were children of the second wife.

Reference might be had to Appendix G.
55 Elijah Goodwin ( William 5%, William .'+8, Daniel 1)\
baptized March 23, 1726-7 in South Berwick, has a con-
fusing; matrimonial record. The Berwick records show
that "Elijah Goodwin married Abigail Martin December
21, 1749; " Captain Goodwin's record first had her name
Abigail Underwood but a number of her descendants
wrote, insisting that she was Abigail Tarbox. I can find no
other Elijah of this age, so perhaps Abigail Tarbox was-
the widow Abigail Martin when she married Elijah. He
married, secondly, Mrs. Eunice {Foy) Hammond. He
was a farmer, residing in Great Falls, N. H., but event-
ually settling in Cranberry Meadow, Berwick.

staff of the Washington (D. C. ) "-Intelligencer," which posi-
tion he resigned to accept a clerkship in the war depart-
ment. Returning to Franklin he founded the Merrimack
"Journal" in 1872. While in Washington he wrote a his-
tory for schools of tbe colored population in the District of
Columbia. He was a fine writer of biographical sketches
as is shown in the Memorial to Dr. Timothy Kenrickr
which he prepared in 1879. He also wrote for the
"Statesman," published at Concord, N, H., and for the
Granite State Monthly. He was always greatly interested
in schools and gave all his daughters an excellent educa-

65 Noah Goodwin {John 58, William 48, Daniel 1) is-
known to have married, but no record of his family has
been obtained.
66 James Goodwin (William, 48, Daniel T) is untraced,
unless he be the James Goodwin who baptized in Ber-
wick a son Nathan, September 21, 1746. Three sons
of Daniel 1 each named a son " James." These were
Daniel 2, Thomas 34 and William 48. The youngest grand-
son of Daniel 2, was baptized in 1739,— seven years older
than this Nathan, so apparently Nathan was not a son of
James 21, and thus a grandson of Daniel 2. The children
of James 43, son of Thomas 34, are known, and there is no
Nathan among them. This leaves only James 64, son of
William 4 8, and, as another son of William 48 had a son
Nathan, it seems quite probable that James 66 is the James
who baptized a son-in 1746. But see James 54.

69 Taylor Goodwin (William #?, Daniel 1) married
Elizabeth Nason, daughter of Benjamin Nason. Her sis-
ter, Martha, was the wife of John Goodwin Jr., of Kenne-
bunkport. Taylor was a farmer and resided in the "Old
Fields," South Berwick. After his death his widow mar-
ried Peter Grant, whose first wife was Alice Guptail.
* The Berwick record contains this entry: "February 16, 1770, John Murray
Jr., with Susannah Goodwin, both of Berwick." Captain Goodwin's record says,
"Amy (Susannah), was Taylor Goodwin's daughter, W. F. G." Taylor Goodwin
had no daughter Amy or Susannah, nor can I find any Susannah of this genera-
tion, and if Amy and Susannah are the same person, she was doubtless this Amy,,
daughter of Taylor's brother, Adam.

APPENDIX
THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE. 69
Appendix A.
THE GOODWINS OF WELLS, MAINE.
In approaching this branch it may be well to say that
-every guess or hypothesis I have made concerning its
origin has been upset by later data. One family has the
tradition that it comes from the eldest son of Daniel of
Kittery, but has no records. I think this tradition is cor-
rect but simply give what 1 have collected and trust to
the future for " more light. "
I.
H6 Thomas Goodwin ( , Daniel 1) was residing in
Wells probably by 1730. He married Hannah Wells,
daughter of John and Mary {Peck ?) Wells. The will of
John Wells, dated May 10, 1718, mentions his daughter's
"heirs" and makes a special bequest to "grandson
Thomas Goodwin," mentioning deed to this Thomas dated
January 27, 1713-1. This will, of course, shows that
Hannah ( Wells) Goodwin had more heirs than Thomas,
Jr., and indicates that Thomas, Jr., was the eldest. He,
Thomas, Jr., married in 1753 and one of his descendants
says he was twenty years of age when married. I am not
sure that this statement was tradition or a 'result ;• of j con-
fusing him with Thomas 28, baptized [1732. In either
event it would fix the date of the Hannah Wells marriage
;as early if not earlier than 1732, and prove that her hus-
band, Thomas Goodwin, was not later than the third gen-
eration. I know of only three'Thomases of'. that rgener-
ation. One is Thomas 28, called " Junior," who married
70 THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE.
Elizabeth Abbott in 1722, and "Thomas, Jr., and Eliz-
abeth" were baptizing children in Berwick up to October
5, 1732. The fact that Elizabeth's name is mentioned
indicates that she was then alive, and it is very improbable
that, even if she died immediately thereafter, her husband
could be the father of Thomas, of Wells, who married in
1753, then twenty years old or over. Another Thomas
is Thomas 35 who married Elizabeth Butler and his
family is traced. That leaves us only Thomas 22, son of
Daniel 3, the eldest son of Daniel, of Ivittery, who married
Abigail Seward in 1722 and whose descendants are un-
traced. It is perhaps reasonable to suggest that this
Thomas and Abigail had children, and that after her death
he contracted a marriage with Hannah Wells before or
around 1730. Granting this, he could not have been the
father of Paul and Joshua, of -Wells, for they were even
older than the date of the marriage to Abigail Seward,
and this would indicate an older son of Daniel 2 as their
father. The data leading to settlement of these matters
will probably include John Goodwin, Jr., Appendix B,
as a relative.
The history of Saco Valley says that Mary Goodwin of
Wells was a sister of Samuel Goodwin of Wells and
married Joseph Haley, their daughter Mary marrying
(Downing) Goodwin, grandson of Thomas and Hannah
( Wells). It also appears that Downing's sister married a
John Goodwin of Wells. I suggest that Hannah ( Wells)
Goodwin's "heirs" may have included Thomas, Samuel
and Mary, and that Thomas, son of Downing, married
Mary's daughter, Mary Haley, (which fact is beyond dis-
pute) and that Thomas' daughter, Sarah, married Sam-
uel's son, John. I do not offer this with any weight, for
I do not know that Samuel ever married or had a son

any other family.

79 John Goodwin (Downing 78, Thomas 77, Thomas 76 \

married, first, to Abigail Brown, born November 21, 1792r
a daughter of Ephraim and Huldah (Richardson) Brown.
She died December 14, 1833, and Mr. Goodwin married,
second, Sarah Cole Chace, born August 25, 1798, who
died July 11, 1840. Mr. Goodwin married, third, Eliza
Richardson, born August 11, 1S08, a daughter of Elisha
Richardson. She died April 6, 1867. Her youngest
son, Newton, had an office in the Rookery Building, Chi-
cago, as had also Horace B. Goodwin of the Hartford
Goodwins, and the writer. It was the "chaffing" of New-

ton and Horace which first really determined the writer
to discover his own ancestry, it possible. Newton was
one of the finest specimens of physical manhood it was
ever my fortune to see, but, poor fellow, the current of
events seemed to run against him in tlmse days of misfor-
tunes, and on a beautiful summer day he voluntarily laid
down the burdens of life. Horace was -perhaps the last
person he spoke to as he left our building; but he gave no-
evidence then of his intention. He was worthy of a better
fate, and to the memory of him, the first of the three to
to go, I lay this branch of laurel with the eypress. Mr.
John Goodwin married for his fourth wife Clarinda Buz-
zell, who survives him, but by which marriage there were
no children. He resided in Baldwin from 1817 for over
forty years, being in trade with Lot Davis at the " Cor-
ner." He kept a tavern* from 1830 to 1853, removing
thereafter to Limington.

Notes.
It appears that the Wells families were founded by
Goodwins born between 1700 and 1720, and it is claimed
that they were descendants of Daniel 2. This is not only
probable but almost a necessity, as James 23 died in 1697,
and the children of Thomas 31, William 48 and Moses 73
seem to be traced safely beyond 1720. Turning to Daniel
2, we find Thomas, untraced beyond 1722, who could
have been the founder of the Wells family I. The other
Wells families were apparently those of grandsons of
Daniel second, and we have no complete record of Miles
6, born 1687, and Nathaniel 11, born 1689. This last
man baptized four children in 1721, but one of them
married in 1731, so that he must have been fully twelve
years old at baptism. We find one more child not bap-
tized, and, as all of these children went to Kennebunkport
and as the Wells Goodwins made several marriages in
Kennebunkport, it seems a plausible theory that Nathaniel
11 hid more than the four children baptized and the one
not baptized, and that among those other children were
Paul, family II, and Joshua, family III, and perhaps
John, Jr., Appendix B. I append a diagram showing
the suggested relationship and ask for further data. The
descendants of Paul and Joshua claim relationship, as do
the descendants of Joshua and John.

THE GOODWINS OF KENNEBUNKPOiiT, MAINE.
John Goodwin (-
-, Daniel 1) was born in
South Berwick about 1719, but 1 can get absolutely no
trace of his parentage. He married Martha Nason,
daughter of Benjamin Nason, and they resided in South
Berwick until about 1754 when " Martha Goodwin, wife of
John Goodwin, Jr., was dismisst and recommended to ye
second Church in Wells, November 24, 1754," but they
settled in Kennebunkport and not Wells. He was called
John, "Jr.", to distinguish him from John 59, who also
married a Martha. I find a Simeon of 1743, baptized by
John, Jr., and Martha, but no record of the Simeon born
in 1746. That date is given by Simeon's descendants.
It may be the same child or the first Simeon may have
died young. I am not able to trace the ancestry of Sarah
or Deborah Goodwin who married sons of John, Jr.
Mark is given in t^e Berwick Records as baptized by
il John and Martha," but he is otherwise identified as a
son of John, Jr. Undoubtedly John, Jr., was a son of
one of the grandchildren of Daniel 1, but of which
one ? See diagram in Goodwins of Wells.

THE GOODWINS OF NEWBURY, VT., AND HAV-

It has so far been impossible for .me to identify this
family with that of Daniel of Kittery. No sooner have I
thought its place absolutely fixed than some new data
came to hand upsetting the arrangement. Were it not
for the name Willoughby, which only appears, so far as I
have found, in the Maine family, I would be tempted to
say that this branch was from Essex County, Massachu-
setts, and did not belong to the Maine family.* I am
not positive that Samuel Goodwin was a brother of Cap-
tain Simeon and John, who were brothers. These latter
ones were soldiers in New Hampshire as early as 1755,
indicating their birth around 1720, — perhaps grandsons
of one of the sons of Daniel 1. Captain Simeon's son Asa
* I find on the inside cover of one of Captain Goodwin's books this entry :
"Baily Ciar-Willouphby Goodwin, Amesbury." This looks like the name WTil-
louKhby is found in the Essex branch.

89 Captain Simeon Goodwin ( 88, , Dan-

Vermont and Haverhill, New Hampshire, in 1763. He
was a very prominent man in his locality. He removed
in 1802 to Marietta, Ohio, where he died. Much of my
information concerning this branch has come from Mr.
John M. Goodwin of Newbury, who wrote that Captain
. Simeon's daughter Mary married her cousin Willoughby,
Goodwin. Captain Goodwin's MS. contains a statement
of Samuel Goodwin, showing that his grandfather, Deacon
Willoughby Goodwin, married twice and neither wife was
Mary Goodwin. Upon submitting this to Mr. John M.
Goodwin, he saw Mr. Miller of Ryegate, who insisted
that Mary married Willoughby, and that Deacon Wil-
loughby was of another branch. The name Samuel would
indicate that Deacon Willoughby was a son of Simeon's-
brother (?) Samuel.

Jonathan had a large family. One daughter married
Tukesbury of Newbury. One daughter, Phoebe,
died in 1881, in her 102d year. Can get no further data
unless Isaac Goodwin, born 1783, in Newbury, Vermont,
married Jemima Ford, was one of the children.
Nathaniel married and had a family. One son ap-
pears to be Aaron, born 1794, in Orange Connty, Ver-
mont, whose youngest son is J. AVest Goodwin, Editor
Sedalia (Mo.) "Bazoo." Another son was Dr. W. W.
Goodwin, who was the first of the Goodwins the writer
ever saw who was not a relative.
Simeon married and had four daughters, Susan, Mar-
garet, Sarah and Roxana.
Asa married, removed to Marietta, Ohio, and then to
St. Louis, where he died. He had eight children — Sim-
eon, Samuel Kittredge, James, Sarah, Cynthia, Asa, Wil-
liam and Mrs. Miller. John Merrill Goodwin, Bethel,
Ohio, son of Simeon, has furnished much of the data of
this branch.
James Goodwin (Son of Asa), born March 13, 1796,
married Lucina Chandler and resided in Felicity, Ohio.
Their children were I, Louisa, II, Caroline, III, Cynthia,
IV, Minerva, V, Charles Chandler, VI, Sarah Ann, VII,
James Sylvester, VIII, Octavus Simeon. Of these,
Charles Chandler, and his sons, James H. and Thomas T.
(of Cincinnati)^ Sarah Ann and Octavus Simeon have
rendered vey considerable assistance in compiling the rec-
ords.

91 Samuel Goodwin ( 88, , Daniel If) was in New-

were the father of Elder WiUoughby who had a grandson
Samuel, I cannot place Elder WiUoughby. It must be
noted that this grandson Samuel says that he thinks Elder
WiUoughby Goodwin was born in West Newbury, Massa-
chusetts, the home of the Essex County, Massachusetts,
Goodwins, and it should also be remembered that Samuel
was a favorite name among the Essex County Goodwins
and appears very seldom among Daniel's descendants and
further that the Newbury, Massachusetts, Goodwins inter-
married repeatedly with the Currier family. In addition
to this, I find the name Wells Goodwin in this Esses
County family and also find a Samuel Goodwin, born in
1701, son of a Samuel Goodwin, who settled for awhile in

THE GOODWINS OF LEBANON, MAINE.
Thomas Goodwin "TerHus" [Thomas, , Daniel 1)
resided in Berwick and on July 15, 1761, he was married
by Rev. John Morse of the 2nd Church of Berwick to
Eunice Lord. As one of their children, Reuben, was
offered for baptism by Benjamin Lord and wife, it is prob-
able that they were the parents of Eunice, who had died
before 1769, as, on August 2, 1769, Thomas was married
2nd by Rev. Mathew Meriam at Berwick to Mehitable
Goodwin, born in 1727, a daughter of Adam and Sarah
( ) Goodwin 67. He resided in North Berwick at the
foot of Beach Ridge, removing to Lebanon. His birth
is given as 1721 and 1734, neither date tallying with any
other Thomas. To make the confusion greater, a Thomas
Goodwin " 3d " was married at the Church of Christ, of
Berwick, to Mary Hicks on July 29, 1754. None of the
descendants of Thomas tertius have any record of the
Thomas 3d marriage, so that it is not probably the same
man with three wives. It is possible that Thomas 37 is
this Thomas tertvm, as that Thomas had a twin brother
Elisha and brothers Reuben and Moses, — names of the
* His son, Reuben H., was father of Mrs. Nellie F. Emery, WTest Buxton. Me.
86 THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE.
first three children of Thomas tertius; but another child
was named Gideon and that name only appears as the
brother of Thomas- 28, who was baptized in 1732. An
unexplained circumstance is that in Lower Bolton, Canada,
the descendants of James Goodwin, Appendix G., have an
old family Bible in which is recorded most of the data of
this Thomas tertius but no word of explanation of the
relationship between Thomas and James is given.
It is probable that the Moses given among the children
of the second wife is the son of the first wife, but baptized
among the second brood. Further data of this family is
desired. If I can obtain the name of a brother or sister
of Thomas tertius or of his mother, I can place him at
once. He was certainly a son of one of the Thomas
Goodwins, but I do not know which.

Capt. Goodwin who states that Moses lived in Lebanon,
AYaterborouo;h and Lisbon and "left children." The
Captain was quite right as to the last remark for Moses
had two wives and left twelve children by each wife. I
am indebted to Hon. Oliver B. Clason of Gardiner, and
Miss Jennie Briery of South Gardiner, for the data of
Moses1 family. The first wife was Emma or Eunice King
(Miss Briery suggests Keene) and his second wife was Susan
Murray of Windsor, Me. The children were twelve sons
and twelve daughters. 1 can get only half of his first
family- — Gideon, Benjamin, Jonathan K., Joseph, Isaac and
Clarissa. By his second wife he had Moses, Aaron, John,
Jordan, Oliver, Elizabeth, "William II., Eunice, Thomas,
Mary, Phoebe and Charity. The son Jonathan K. married
Rachael Towne and resided in South Gardiner and Dix-
mont. His third child, Rachel, .married Uriah Briery
and was the mother of Miss Jennie Briery of Randolph,
Me. Gideon, the eldest son of Moses, never married. He
was a devout and godly man, albeit an irrepressible
joker, as the following will illustrate:
What Broke the Meeting Up.
One seldom hears a story more piquantly flavored with the real old New Eng-
land humor than that told in the Gardiner Reporter Journal about Uncle Gideon
Goodwin, who, fifty years ago, was one of the " characters " of the town. At that
time the Methodists used to gather at the houses to hold their prayer-meetings,
THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MALNE. 89
and as Gideon was a devout worshiper of that creed he was a regular attendant.
One night the meeting was held at the house of Harlow Harden, and Gideon was
there.
In those days excitement ran high, and just as the enthusiasm of the assem--
blage was wrought to the highest pitch " Uncle Harden," as he was always called,
arose to his fee*;, and lifting up his hands, shouted in a voice full of fervor, '-Glory
to Gideon !" Hardly had the chorus of amens which this utterance called forth
died away when Goodwin, bound to return the compliment, jumped up and said,
"Glory to you, too, Uncle Harden!" That broke up the meeting.— Lewiston Jour-

Waterborough from descendants of the Carll family which
will fully identify Thomas tertius. Who can obtain the
information for me? Get the names of his brothers and
sisters and the name of his mother.

98 James Goodwin ( , , Daniel 1), who was born
about 1735, is given as the name of the earliest known

to Thomas, fortius, Appendix F, as his descendants have

of Thomas, tertius, as late as 1850.

In the records of Durham, New Hampshire, appear
these entries {page 29, Vol. &£, N. E. H. & G. R.):
k' November 26, 1718, baptized Abigail Gooden, who
" died five hours afterward, and her infant daughter,
" Abigail Gooden."
'•March 5, 1718-9, baptized Susanna Gooden, the
" wife of James Durgin standing sponsoress for this her
' ' grandchild. ' ' The husband of Abigail and father of these
two children was evidently a grandson of Daniel 1. He
could scarcely have been Daniel 3, who did have a wife
Abigail, for their daughter Abigail was born in 1715, and
Amy in November, 1718. It is possibly an earlier mar-
riage of Richard 24, as this man was born about 1685,
and no children are credited to him until 1721, he being
then about 36 years old and the husband of Sarah Hall.
The name Susannah is found among the children of
Thomas, supposed to be a brother of this Richard.

108 James Goodwin ( Daniel 1 ?), born
about 1740, married and resided in Eastport, Maine. He
is said to have been taken prisoner by the British and car-
ried to the Bermuda Islands, where he died. One son, not
John, was in " Braddock's Defeat," and was captured by
the Indians and held for four years. In addition to the
four children mentioned below the name Jesse is given as
a fifth child. Of these children, James settled in St.
Johns, New Brunswick, William in Providence, Rhode
Island and John in Machias, Maine. The latter had six-

-teen children, a grandchild being Miss Ella E. Goodwin,
Cumberland Mills, Maine, who has contributed most of the

family history of James, son of James 43. He was taken
prisoner and died. While it is said he was unmarried,
this may prove to be incorrect and he may be this James

John Samuel Goodwin ( William Bees, Samuel,
Thomas, Thomas), born March 16, 1858, in Edinburg,
Ind., was married October 7, 1880, at Danville, 111., by
Kev. William Rees Goodwin, D. D., to Mary Elizabeth
Forbes, born June 9, 1858, in Danville, a daughter of
Thomas Richard and Anna Eliza (Robinson) Forbes 7,
Thomas Chester,6 Benjamin,'0 Elijah, 4 Joseph, 3 John,2
Jam.es Tories,* of Hartford, Conn. By occupation he
is a lawyer, and in religion a Methodist. Mr. Goodwin

Kansas, from 1878 to 1888; was appointed judge in April,

1879; spent some time abroad in 1885-'86; resided in
Danville, 111., until January, 1891, and in Chicago there-
after. He is law partner of General John C. Black, ex-
Commissioner of Pensions and at present United States
District Attorney. He is interested, very extensively in
the breeding of registered Aberdeen-Angus cattle. He is
the compiler of the genealogy of the Goodwins of Virginia
and of the Goodwins of KitteryT Maine.
Child.
I. Anna, b. Dec. 15, 1886:
And thus endeth the first lesson. The errors,
inaccuracies and blunders will surely be forgiven when it
is remembered that they are made by a " stranger to the
blood/' who has never set foot in Kittery nor beheld Ber-
wick or York or Wells or Kennebunkport; who dwells as
he writes these pages by the fresh water of Lake Michi-
gan and has not the inspiration of the salted seas where
too often those old Goodwins sailed from port and were
never heard from more. Such as it is — not such as he
wishes it were — it is yours, with all the precious heritage
of the almost innumerable years. If it strengthens the
longing for a better history ; if it brings forth him upon
whom Captain Goodwin's mantle has fallen and results in
a complete record, worthy the lives and deeds of the
strong ancestors, the days and nights of work will count
as naught.

THE GOODWINS OF KITTERY, MAINE. 107
ERRATA.
Barring a few typographical errors which will slip in, like
1528 for 1828 in last line on page 20, the only serious error
is, of course, with Thomas 37. I have had no end of trouble
with this man and now the printer has married him to his
brother's wife. In the Children, page 34, fourth line, the
name, Sarah , should be opposite 36 Elisha, and not on
the next lower line, opposite 37 Thomas.

To the Reader:
Tour Goodwin family was such a prolific one that in com-
piling the records of even five generations I have overshot the
mark and exhausted the guaranty fund by quite a little sum.
Besides that, I would like to be able to bind a number of
copies in cloth for presentation to the various public libraries.
This all takes cash. If you have not already made a contribu-
tion, suppose you do so now. The postage and binding will
be about $1.00 per volume. Send what you can and postage
for as many copies of the pamphlet as you wish. If all help
a little the burden will be light.
Yours truly,
Chicago, Aug. 15, 1898. John S. Goodwin,
301 The Temple,
184 La Salle St.
