William Goodrich is my 10th great grandfather and my immigrant ancestor in the Goodrich line. In 1648 he married Sarah Marvin in Hartford County in the Connecticut Colony. The Goodrich clan remained in Connecticut for over 150 years and it is possible that some of William's descendants still live there. However, my 6th great grandfather, John Goodrich, removed to Ohio with his family about 1805. John's wife was Abigail Price and they would have nine children. Their firstborn child, Bela, was my 5th great grandfather and he would settle in Whitley County, Indiana in 1838.

Do you know an 11 year old girl named Emma Goodrich?
So. Do you?
The only Emma Goodrich that I know of was born in 1864, married Eli Miller in 1891, and died in 1944. So, no, I don't know an 11 year old girl named Emma Goodrich.

Becky, I am looking for any information on a Herbert Goodrich born in Connecticut in 1889, married to Anna Bugbee (my Great Grandmother). I can not seem to find any info on his lineage beyond 1889. I would appreciate any info you may have.
Thanks
Holly Foster

The ability to comment has been turned off for all blog posts effective 21 May 2018. Kinexxions has been inactive for more than two years and most comments have come to me directly via email from readers but more than a few were simply spam. My desire is to keep the blog available to the public since there is value in what has been published, particularly posts dealing with family history.
I am still extremely interested in hearing from readers who might be related and have questions or simply want contact with a distant cousin. Please contact me directly via email at kinexxions@gmail.com
This action is also being taken partially due to the General Data Protection Regulation aka "GDPR" going into effect on 25 May 2018. Even though it is a regulation implemented by the European Union that primarily affects businesses and corporations, it governs how data about people can be used. That includes comments left on blog posts, thus the ability to comment is no longer available.
