I didnt know that Grandad Goodfellow wanted to be a pastor, but it makes sense. He has some bibles that have so much writing in them that its hard to read the text around the writing. I have one of the two that Dad inherited. Dad said that his dad Hugh and JP Goodfellow used to argue some about Hugh's religion. I doubt Genevra was one of JP's favorites either as she was pretty religious also. I remember her going to Eli to church on sundays alone.

Lived at Eliot Iowa. I, Mark Goodfellow, met Vivian and Lawrence Rock when the came to Oregon about the late 1970's for, if memory serves, the marriage of a daughter or grandaughter. We talked for a few minutes about Vivian's memory of the family and the inquired about my father, Vivian's cousin. They seemed speechless when I told them what his life had been like and said they had never noticed any problems with him as a young fellow or boy. He was the quiet one of the family, but in no way mean. His younger brother Jim was more of a problem, as they remembered.
