Check Jane Bothwell, wife's notes for marriage info
An E-mail from Muriel Valetta 2 Oct., 2003 talks about a marriage record from Killashandra, Caven, Ireland concerning the marriage of David Goodfellow to Jane Bothwell on 20 October, 1767. My Jane who married David would have been 17 years old then. When they came to America in 1792 they supposedly brought 5 or 6 children, the oldest of whom would have been Thomas, b. about 1777 if the spacing of children is any guied to his age. Check his age on Census of 1800, 1810, etc. If they were married in 1767 what would have caused them to have no children for the first ten years? Did they have some who died? Did some stay in school? Did the older ones, (maybe girls), stay with husbands in Ireland? Or did some (maybe Moore Goodfellow), go out on ther own? Could older boys already be in the military? Could David have been in the military and be gone a lot and thus few, or no, children?
When William's Daughter Juliette Elanor Dorland died in Pueblo, Colorado 17 November, 1912, her Son, Walter L. Dorland, MD, was the attending physician. On death certificate where the name of the deceased's Mother's name was to be written Dr. Dorland wrote, Jane Bothwell. Juliette's Mother was Jane Allison but her Grandmother was Jane Bothwell. It is very unlikely that Dr. Dorland would have made the mistake unless he was familiar with the name; though not the person, who died before Dr. Dorland was born. A happy accident; a lucky mistake.
The 1810 census shows Thomas Goodfellow with 5 sons living in Spring TWP in Montgomery County, PA. and David Goodfellow with one son living in Howard TWP, Centre Co.

Hello Mark!
Nice to hear from you ... I am actually going away for the weekend and will be packing up this afternoon, so I don't have much time to write right now .. but I thought I would send you my notes for William Goodfellow which shows the various sources I have come up with so far. Looks like the dates for the children came from Debbie. Anyway I will write more extensively next week when we get back - we are taking all six children to my 25th college reunion out in Lewisburg! It will be a fun weekend.

William Goodfellow was born in the county of Caven, Ireland, and at the age of ten years he immigrated to America with his parents, two sisters and two brothers; and the family settled in Center County, Pennsylvania. Thence he removed in 1816 to Wayne County, Ohio and operated a farm in Plain Township, where he resided for nearly fifty years. He served as Associate Judge of the Court of Common Pleas from 1824 for a term of seven years, receiving his commission from Governor Jeremiah Morrow. His house, situated on the Ashland road, was widely known for its hospitality. In politics and on moral reforms Judge Goodfellow had the fortitude or the fortune generally to work with minorities, as he became early an old line Whig, and was from the first a radical anti-slavery and anti-liquor man. He had the honor of organizing and being President of the first temperance society in Wayne County, and lived to have all of his long debated principles inaugurated in State or National administration or enactments.
For more than half a century he was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, most of the time filling various of its laical offices, and in its communion he died in 1864. Miss Jane Allison, three years his junior, became his wife in February 1809, and survived him two years. She was a beautiful character, a sincere Christian, an unobtrusive, discreet and saintly woman. Their children were: Matthew Allison, married Drusilla Culbertson in 1833; Jane, married Rev Jesse Warner 1830, died 1843; Louisa Catherine, married Andrew Glenn 1835, died 1836; NARCISSA, MARRIED JAMES W.
