Notes for Maria Louisa Goodfellow
Maria's will left her house on the west side of Clarmont Ave. Ashland Ohio ,
to her sister N. G. Boyd of Ashland. The second bequest in her will was "to my niece Miss Fannie Goodfellow the sum of three hundred dollars".
Who is this Fannie Goodfellow; daughter of Isaiah Goodfellow? Daughter of Fannie was the daughter of Isaiah R. Goodfellow, as shown by the 1870 census in Chicago, Illinios. The Federal census of 1880 showed Fannie living with Luke and Juliette Dorland in Twp 12, Cabarrus Co., North Carolina, and employed as a teacher.
The lives of Maria and Narcissa Goodfellow Boyd, her older sister were connected in some interesting ways. Jane Allison Goodfellow was 51 years old when Maria was born, and Narcissa was already 20. After the deaths of William and Jane Goodfellow, and the death of Narcissa's husband James in the Civil War, the sisters lived in Ashland, Ohio, in the house left by their parents, along with Maria's little son, Samuel Leslie Beer. After Maria died in 1879, Narcissa and Samuel stayed on together in Ashland. In the 1880 census Narcissa identified Samuel as her Grandson.
