Jacob Goodner, Son of Mary

2c Jacob Goodner (1776–1839)– Hester White (1769–1834). Married 2^nd Mary Ann Harwood, 8–30–1835. Married 3^rd Mrs. Zilpah Laforce 7–1–1838.

3d Michael Goodner (1807–1889). Married 1^st Catherine Conner (1808–1859).

Jacob Goodner, the second son and child of Mary and, I believe, Peter Goodner, was born apparently in Orange or Guilford County, North Carolina, in 1776. I have used the word "apparently" since there are some who believe he was born elsewhere. However in the Census Returns for the County of Ohio, State of Indiana, year 1850, his birth place is given as North Carolina. It is my personal belief, as has been explained previously under the heading of Mary Goodner, that all of her children were born in that state. Jacob was one of five children, namely besides himself, Walter, who settled permanently in Vermilion County, Illinois, Henry also lived in Tennessee, Elizabeth, who married George Swisher and followed Walter to Vermilion County, Illinois, and Mary, or Polly, of whom we know nothing.

After the death of Jacob's mother in the latter part of 1796, all the children, save Jacob, remained on the home place. Jacob married Hester White in November of 1798, and left Guilford County, apparently going to the State of Kentucky. Although he was the head of a household in 1800, his name does not so appear in the 1800 census of Guilford County, which is evidence of his absence. The marriage bond posted by Jacob, jointly with George Swisher, reads as follows:

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS that we, Jacob Goodner, and I, George Swisher, are held and firmly bound to his Excellency Governor Ash or his Successor in office in the peanel sum of five hundred pounds Good and Lawful money of the State of North Carolina to which payment well and truly to be mead and don we bind ourselves our heirs Executives & administer jointly and firmly, Sealed with our seal and Dated this 25^th Day of November, 1798.

The Condition of the above obligation is such that whereas the above bondant Jacob Goodner G George Swisher hath the Day above written maid application for marriage License to be Celebrated between Jacob Goodner and Ester Wite and Now if it shall appear in time hereafter that there is Nothing to Obstruct said marriage then the above obligation to be Void EIs to Remean in full force and Effect. Signed Sealed and Delivered in the Presence of us.

The original quaint spelling has been copied. A facsimile of this interesting document is being reproduced, as it should be a subject of much interest to all of Jacob's descendants.

Where ever Jacob was in 1801, he returned to Guilford County in that year for he had to sign the deed covering the sale of the home place on December 12^th, 1801 to Jacob Swisher, for the sum of One Hundred Pounds "good and lawful money.” This was the same tract of land that Mary Goodner had bought from Martin Wirick on August 18^th, 1788, for the sum of Fifty Pounds. It consisted of 111 acres of land on the Reedy Fork Creek in northeastern Guilford County. This deed was also signed by Walter and Henry Goodner.

Shortly after 1802 he journeyed back to Kentucky, for his next child, Catherine, was born there in November 1804. His next two children, Michael, in 1807, and Daniel, in 1810 were also born in Kentucky, although at the time the 1810 census was taken he was residing in Washington County, Virginia, which county is contiguous to Sullivan County, Tennessee, where Conrad resided for some years and where other families from Guilford County had settled. The census returns show the following :

The male under ten years of age, shown in the census returns would be his son, Michael, and the male in the ten to sixteen bracket would be son, John. The female under ten years would be Catherine. The two males in the sixteen to twenty–six year bracket must have been either brothers to his wife, Hester, or possibly cousins, sons of the Walter Goodner who was the son of John and Annie. The female in the ten to sixteen bracket was evidently the wife of one of the males. Two Goodners are shown later to have resided in Vermilion County, Illinois, who were not sons of either Jacob or his brother, Walter, and who were born in North Carolina between 1790 and 1800. These were a Henry Goodner and a Walter Goodner.

It is not known in what part of Kentucky Jacob lived, but the distance between the Kentucky State line and Washington County, Virginia, is not great. The nearby Cumberland Gap offered a natural and convenient passage between the two places.

The spelling in this document is convincing evidence of the Pennsylvania Dutch background of these people. You will note that the name of Hester is spelled “Ester Wite,” which is exactly the way they would pronounce the name "Hester White. It is interesting, and meaningful, to note also that Jacob signed his name in English script and not in the German script, as did George Swisher as well, who at this time had married Elizabeth Goodner, and was thus Jacob 's brother–in–law.

About the year 1815, or 1816, Jacob moved to Switzerland County, Indiana, when the Cincinnati lands were thrown open for settlement. He took out grants for two tracts of land, one of which, entered March 13^th, 1815, was for the South West One Quarter of Section 19, Township 3 N, Range 1 W of 1^st P. M. line. The second one, entered December 31^st, 1817, was for the South East One Quarter of Section 25. On March 1^st, 1832, he relinquished the West one–half of the latter. The first grant was for land that lay in that part of Dearborn County which later was cut off and formed into Ohio County, and the second grant was for land in Switzerland County. The first grant read as follows:

"James Madison, President of the United States of America, to whom these presents shall come, Greeting: Know ye that Jacob Goodner of Kentucky Having deposited in the General land Office a Certificate of the register of the land Office at Cincinnati whereby it appears that full payment has been made for the Southwest Quarter of Section Nineteen of Township Three in Range One lying west of the Meridian line of the lands directed to be sold at Cincinnati by the Act of Congress entitled an act providing for the Sale of Lands of the United States in the Territory north west of the Ohio and above the mouth of the Kentucky River and of the acts amendatory of the Same, there is Granted by the United States unto the said Jacob Goodner the quarter lot or section of land above described To Have and To Hold the said quarter lot or Section of land with the appurtances unto the said Jacob Goodner his heirs and assigns forever, in Testimony whereof I have caused these letters to be made patent and the Seal of the General Land Office to be hereto affixed, given under my hand at the City of Washington the fourteenth day of August in the Year of our Lord One Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixteen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the forty first, by the President."

Others who took out land grants at this time or a little later, some of which are undoubtedly of Orange and Guilford County , North Carolina, derivation, are :

Isaac Conner	Dearborn County, Indiana	2–7–1815
John Conner	Dearborn County, Indiana	8–10–1815
Daniel Conner	Switzerland County, Indiana	4–22–1801
Jacob Smith	Dearborn County, Indiana	8–10–1815
William Smith	Dearborn County, Indiana	2–20–1813
Joseph White	Dearborn County, Indiana	6–4–1817
Caleb White	Dearborn County, Indiana	7–10–1818
John White	Dearborn County, Indiana	12–13–1816
James White	Dearborn County, Indiana	7–1–1813
William S. White	Dearborn County, Indiana	2–20–1813
Alex. White	Dearborn County, Indiana	2–2–1815
John Cunningham	Switzerland County, Indiana	3–25–1817

Jacob continued to live and pass out his days in the counties of Ohio and Switzerland. According to a grandson, John Piatt Goodner, he at one time owned and operated an inn or tavern, called the 'Black Horse Inn,” or "Black Horse Tavern,” located in Aberdeen in Ohio County.

Hester, born in 1769, according to information which seems reliable, and who was thus older than Jacob, and who was the mother of all his children, died in 1834. Jacob then married Mary Ann Harwood, August 30^th, 1835, in Ohio County. She apparently died a few years later, for on July 1^st, 1838, he married for the third time, his third wife being a widow, Mrs. Zilpah Laforce. Jacob did not survive but a few months after this marriage, for he passed away the latter part of 1839, in the 63^rd year of his life.

Zilpah married the following Spring, April 30^th, 1840, Dana Jacobs, in Switzerland County, I. S. Dalrymple, Pastor of the Church of Jesus Christ.

A genealogical chart of the issue and descendants of Jacob and Hester follow, so far as it has been possible to secure the data. I regret that it is not complete:

1d John Goodner, born 1800, North Carolina, undoubtedly Guilford County; died 10–14–1852, reputedly from cholera while on a boat going down the Ohio River, and buried along the shore. As a boy, accompanied his parents to Kentucky, thence to Washington County, Virginia, in 1810, then again back to Kentucky, and thence finally to Dearborn County, Indiana, when he was 15 years of age. Here John grew to manhood on the farm. On November 9^th, 1826, he married Jane Litta, Dearborn County. Parentage of Jane is not known. On February 15^th, 1832, he entered a tract of land in adjoining Ohio County; that is, what is now Ohio County, which tract had been granted to one John Kemp, and then relinquished by him to John Goodner. This is probably the same tract of land disposed of by his heirs on April 18^th, 1867. In the 1850 census returns of Ohio County, Indiana, John is shown as head of a household, age 50, born in North Carolina, with wife, Jane, age 42, born in Pennsylvania, and children, William, age 18, Andrew, age 16, and Julia, age 14.

In the 1860 census, Jane is shown as head of the household, age 52, birth place Pennsylvania, with daughter, Julia, age 23, and with three small children, namely Willie Goodner, age 5, Arthur Goodner, age 1, and Lenoria Myers, age 12, with place of residence Coopersville. The three small children were evidently grandchildren, Lenoria being a daughter of Melissa, and the boys being sons of her son, William, who must have been deceased at the time.

We, Jane Goodner, Andrew J. Goodner and Virginia, his wife, Julia Ann Goodner, and Lenore Myers of Ohio County, Indiana, and Alexander James and Sarah James, his wife, of Gallatin County, Kentucky, in consideration of the sum of Five Thousand Four Hundred and Forty Two dollars and fifty cents unto us paid by William I. Cooper of Ohio County, Indiana, convey and warrant to the said William L.. Cooper the following real estate in the said County of Ohio, to wit: the East one half of the South east quarter of Section 14, Township 3, Range 2 West, containing 84 acres. Also the South west Quarter of said South east Quarter, containing 44 acres, except 10 acres thereof set off to William Dorrell by proceedings in partition in the Common Pleas of said County at the April tenth 1860, the said two pieces of real estate with that set off to said Dorrell being the real estate owned by John Goodner, deceased, in his lifetime. Also part of the Southeast Quarter of Section 13, in the same township and range, bounded as follows: Beginning at the Southwest corner of said Quarter and running thence East 57 60 rods to a stone in the valley; thence South 9½" W. 68 rods to a point from which a sycamore 20" in diameter "becors" S 28¼ E. 28 links distant,– etc. to the place of the beginning, containing 37 43/100 acres more or less, and being the same real estate conveyed to said Andrew J. Goodner by George W. Stewart by deed dated February 7^th, 1863.

In Testimony whereof the grantors have hereunto set their hands the 18^th Signed the 18^th day of April, 1867.

Deed acknowledge by Jane Goodner, April 20^th, 1867. A. C. Downey, N. P,. John B. Covington, Recorder Ohio County, Indiana.

After the sale of the home place, Jane took up residence with her son, Andrew. The 1870 census of Ohio County shows her still living with him, age 62. At this time they resided in Aberdeen Cass Township. It is not known when she died or where buried.

1e Sarah M. Goodner, born about 1830, Ohio County, Indiana Married Alexander James, 9–18–1845, Ohio County, Indiana Ceremony performed by Thomas Griswold, JP. Resided in Gallatin County, Kentucky, across the Ohio River from Ohio County, Indiana.

1f Maud E. James, born about 1846/7, Gallatin County, Kentucky. Married Mr. Presser.

2f William James, born about 1848–9, Gallatin County, Kentucky. Married Sarah [name unknown]. Residence: 2403 Warren Street, Covington, Kentucky.

4f. Fannie James, born about 1853/4. Married Mr. Brashear. Resided in Gretter Apts, Frankfort, Kentucky.

5f Mack James, born about 1856/7. Married Lucy [name unknown]. Resided in Independence, Missouri.

2e William Goodner, born about 1832, Ohio County, Indiana. Must have died prior to 1867, when the father's land was sold, for his name does not appear as one of the grantors. Evidently he married and had issue. He is reported to have had a daughter, Cora, who married a Mr. Bennett, and who resided at 514 Sheridan Street, Greensburg, Indiana. Then, too, Jane Goodner, the mother, in 1860, had in her household two small children, Willie Goodner, or Wilea Goodner, age 5, and Arthur Goodner, age 1. It is possible that Willie, or Wilea, was a girl, maybe a nickname for Cora, and that Arthur died young, since we have no further record of him. Neither of these children were living with Andrew, as their names fail to appear in the 1870 census of his household.

3e Andrew Jackson Goodner, born 1834, Ohio County, Indiana, died 1900, in San Luis Valley, Colorado. Married Virginia Mary Smith, 9–27–1866, Ohio Co., Indiana, ceremony performed by F. J. Klein, a Catholic priest. Resided in Cass Township, in Aberdeen, in 1870, when his mother was living with him. He is reported to have been living in Brookston, White County, Indiana, in 1889, and that immediately after that year he moved with his family to Colorado. Virginia May was a daughter of James T. Smith of Ohio County, Indiana Mary lies interred in a Catholic Cemetery in La Junta, Colorado. It is reported that he and his family moved to Colorado in the early 1890's, to join his son, James Andrew. Had gone to the California Gold Fields in 1854 via New York, boat to Panama, and over isthmus by coach. An Indian carried his heavy trunk on his back and arrived Pacific side first. Worked at Placerville for 2 years. To the union of Andrew Jackson and Virginia, four sons were born.

1f James Andrew Goodner, born 8–18–1867, Rising Sun, Indiana, died 1942, Rocky Ford, Colorado. Interred in Rocky Ford. Removed from Indiana to the San Luis Valley in Colorado in 1885, where he took a contract to construct the bridges and head gates for the San Luis Irrigation Canal, which contract he successfully completed, at which time he was 18 and 19 years of age. Later worked as a carpenter and became associated with James Monroe Chritton, a contractor and builder, and whose daughter, Gertrude, he married in 1891. She was born in Neringo, Iowa, in 1873, and died in Rocky Ford, Colorado, in 1947, where she was interred. James Monroe Chritton (1842–1927) was born in Ohio, and his wife, Mary Hollowell (1845–1927), was born in Iowa.

In the early "nineties,” James Andrew purchased a steam tractor and separator and did grain thrashing in the valley. About this time his folks moved west to the area, and he had his brother, William Henry ("Harry"), operate the machine while he built and operated a blacksmith shop in the small town of Mosca nearby. In 1898, he invented a rotary steam engine, which was exhibited at the Omaha Exhibition, and which earned a Gold Medal.

At one time one of the engines was in the museum at the University of Colorado. Before it could be put on the market the steam turbine came out and made it obsolete. For a time he operated a shop in the Bessemer section of Pueblo, and in 1910 moved to Rocky Ford, Colorado, to which puce the Chrittons had already moved. There he built and operated a blacksmith and machine shop, which he called the "Eagle Shops,” in which undertaking his brother, Clifford L. joined him, followed still later by another brother, William Henry. His brother, Rupert, joined him also but remained only briefly. Here they did considerable wagon and buggy wheel work. In 1905, he invented and patented "Goodner Chain Pump,” a continuous piston pump in which the piston or plunger did not work up and down but kept continuously in the one direction. It met with instant success– it was 95% efficient–and was used throughout the western states until as late as the "twenties,” pumping irrigation water on farms. They were built with capacities as large as 1600 gallons per minute. In 1906, he invented a machine for seeding cantaloupes and cucumbers, which proved quite successful. Because of anticipated limited demand, it was not patented, and so after the Eagle Shops had built about 100 of them, it was widely copied and produced. The basic principles invented by Mr. Goodner are still in use in present day seeders.

As the business grew, James Andrew built an iron and brass foundry near the Santa Fe tracks, permitting raw materials to be purchased in carload quantities. He designed, and his brother, Clifford L., and he built the cupola, the cranes, and the flasks. Pending the training of a molder, James Andrew himself melted the iron and brass and poured the castings. At this time a demand developed for a pump on farms that would stand the erosive action of the silt laden Arkansas river water, it being necessary to lift the water into the canals. An ordinary pump had only a life span of a couple of years. By 1910, he had invented and was manufacturing such a pump, a new type centrifugal one capable of withstanding the erosive action of the silt, some of them remaining in efficient operation after 20 years of service.

William Henry and Clifford L., never liking shop work, wanted to get out of the business, and so the company was sold to a Mr. H. E. Levers of Roswell, New Mexico, in exchange for farm and city property. James Andrew then moved on a 480 acre farm out of Roswell, but finding the productivity of the land unsatisfactory, he in 1915 rented the farm and city property and moved back to Rock Ford, Colorado. Later the Roswell property was traded for an equity in a manufacturing plant in Trinidad, Colorado, where Diesel engines were manufactured In accordance with arrangements James Andrew was to have a certain authority in the management of the shop, but conflict and differences early arose, so his equity was traded for two good farms north east of Rocky Ford and a good assortment of wood working tools used in the making of patterns for foundry castings.

For several years, James Andrew and some of his sons, including James Russell, had been working on a new type pump which he had sketched out on paper, and in the fall of 1916, after James Andrew had returned from Twin Falls, Idaho, where he had been in charge of building the forms for the concrete foundations, and later setting the machines, for a new sugar factory being built by The La Rue Construction Company, he and his son, Monroe Harry, set up a small machine shop in the old water works building in Rocky Ford. At the end of World War I, in which all the sons had seen service, James Andrew was joined by his three sons, Charles Roy, Monroe Harry, and James Russell. They did custom work of all kinds. In 1922, Monroe Harry expressed the wish to take over the shop, and so the others sold out their interests to him. Charles Roy and James Russell accepted positions with the Great Western Sugar Company in 1923, while James Andrew took off for an extended trip to California. Because of poor business conditions the business was turned back to James Andrew in 1925, and Monroe Harry went to California where a few years later he invented the E and J Resuscitator, which is still being manufactured in Glendale, California.

During the immediate years following, James Andrew designed and built coal conveyors, onion graders, and a variety of agricultural devices, and did more work on the pressure pump. He sold the patent rights and all the equipment on the pump to the California Oil Tool County, and Charles Roy went with the company to superintend the manufacture, but because of financially bad times the pump was never put on the market. Charles Roy then went with the Connersville Blower Company as engineer and draftsman in the shop and in the field.

In 1928, James Andrew was manufacturing a new type pump which he had designed and continued to do so until 1934, w hen Theodore Chritton, his youngest son, joined him in the business. They produced besides the pump, seeding equipment, and an automatic grain and produce scale which had no knife edges. Theodore had graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Electric Engineering, and had been associated with the Western Electric Company in electronics. The business prospered, and Theodore induced his father to sell out to him, which James Andrew did, but he continued to go to the shop every day until the day of his death.

Theodore purchased the old buildings of the Goodner Pump and Machine Company in Rocky Ford, and remodeled them. At the same time, through court action, he secured control of the old name. The business continued to grow, and in 1957, at the time of Theodore's death, he was marketing some of the new electric submerged pumps he had designed and patented. His wife and son continue to operate the business under the name of the Goodner Iron and Pump Works. Physically, James Andrew was a handsome and powerfully built man,– almost six feet tall, blue–gray eyes, hair almost black–brown, trim, straight, slim waist, and with the muscular arms and chest of the blacksmith he was. His son, James Russell, states that his physique was "like the pictures in a Physical Culture" magazine. (The above is a condensation of an article by James Russell Goodner).
