DESCENDANTS OF AARON GOODWIN


by Jane A. Leavell

Descendants of Aaron Goodwin

GENERATION NO. 1

1. AARON GOODWIN was born Abt. 1753 in Virginia, and died October 26, 1828 in Washington, Daviess, Indiana, USA. He married (1) SUSANNAH LEASURE in Maryland. She was born in Maryland, and died Bef. 1803 in Hinkston Station, Harrison, Kentucky, USA. He married (2) MARY CHAPMAN 1803 in Champaign County, Ohio, daughter of ELIJAH CHAPMAN and ACHSAH BORDEN. She was born Abt. 1785. She died about 1846 in White County, Illinois, USA.

Notes for Aaron Goodwin: O Notes for AARON GOODWIN:
One theory is that Aaron Goodwin's father (John?) was born in Ireland and moved to VA where Aaron was born. JOE WALTON FAMILY TREE at http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/1249397/person/-1964064138 has this posted, giving John a birthdate of 1725. According to John S. Goodwin's THE GOODWIN FAMILY IN AMERICA, Aaron Goodwin was born in 1753 in Virginia. (One grandson insisted to him that Aaron was born in Hartford, Connecticut--but a book on GOODWINS OF HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT doesn't include this Aaron.) http://www.shawhan.com/Notes/goodwin.html claims that Aaron was born August 18, 1754 in South Berwick, Maine, to Aaron GOODWIN (1702-1772) and Sarah Thompson, but gives no sources and it seems unlikely. Quaker Goodwins from VA did move to Brownsville, PA, and then to Cincinnati and Dayton OH and to Indiana. Was Aaron a Quaker?

He removed from Virginia to the Cumberland Valley in Maryland as a young man, where he married Susannah Leasure/Lazure/Leisure/LaZear/Lashire. Was she the daughter of Eldest Leasure? Other accounts say they married in Pennsylvania or Kentucky. They had five sons and one daughter.

In 1790, with his family, he moved past the Old Fort (later Brownsville, Fayette County, PA) and by flatboat to Maysville, Kentucky. They settled at Hinkston Station, KY, (later Harrison County), where Susannah died. Some of the children remained in Kentucky with their mother's people. Others went with Aaron to Champaign County, Ohio, where in 1803 he married Mary Chapman, who removed from Virginia to OH "at a very early age." They moved to Urbana, OH, and began their family.

Due to his prejudice against slavery, Aaron moved from Kentucky to Illinois in 1809, settling 12 miles east of St. Louis. Some of the children from the first marriage left the family there to settle in MO and the Iowa/Illinois border.

Deciding to return to Ohio in 1812, he stopped 12 miles east of Princeton, Indiana. Judge John S. Goodwin says, "Being pleased with the appearance of the country, and winter approaching, he took possession of an abandoned log house, where he remained with his family through the winter, and he then settled half a mile north of Washington Indiana, where he died 26 October 1828." His daughter, Achsah (Axie) was the first of his family to be born in Indiana.

Our Aaron Goodwin was a teacher and farmer. He had six children by each wife.

An Aaron Goodwin appears in Cincinnati newspapers as having letters in the Lawrenceburg, IN post office 31 December 1815 and 31 March 1816.

Stella Bogner's ABSTRACTS OF PROBATE RECORDS has Aaron on Nov. 10, 1828; wife Mary; executor Benjamin Goodwin.

An Aaron Goodwin appears in a Delphi Township, Hamilton Co. OH census with Daniel and Nancy Goodwin.

Jane, I was going through some old notes and came upon you post here on the forum. . .You might want to look in the line Abraham>Peter>Joseph for your Susannah. She is the only one that I can come up with that would have been in the Cumberland Valley in that time frame. Joseph Lazear's children (conjecture here) were born in Frederick Co.I have no other information other than her existance as one of Joseph's children. FYI, she spelled her name La Zear according to my information. . .

Peter Lizar (Lyser, Elizer), b.c.1751-60, Probably in Md., possibly in Montgomery Co. His 2nd wife was b. c.1791-94. He is on the tax lists for Fayette Co. for f1794, 1796, 1799, 1801-04. He is in the Kentucky Census for Fayette Co for 1810, and for Harison Co. for 1820, 1830, and 1840. His daughter Nancy, b. 1805, married James K. Crawford in 1849. I am interested in any available information on his antecedents, and in other family members.

Peter's parents Abraham LeSueur and Margarette had a son, Joseph, born abt. 1730 Switzerland, died in Garrard County, Kentucky, on 14 Oct 1835. His first wife was Elizabeth Montgomery, born abt 1735. He'd be the right age and right state to be the father of our Susannah.

10/16/2004
am looking for anyone related to Susannah Leasure. She is my 5th great grandmother. Born ca.1755 MD, married to Aaron Goodwin. I have her father as being Joseph Lazear, born: abt. 1730 in Switzerland, died: Oct. 14,1835 in Garrard Co., Ky. I have also found her father as Eldest Leasure.
I would really like to hear from anyone that has more information on Susannah's parents. Please e-mail me at jdpmiller at earthlink.net

Notes for MARY CHAPMAN:
Mary was born in either New Jersey or Cincinnati, Hamilton, Ohio, removing from Virginia to Ohio at a very young age.

.....I show a Moses Goodwin (brother to Achsah--1st wife of George Washington Crabtree) owning land in Gibson Co-- R32, T3, R12 (SE 1/4, NW 1/2 S part of NE 1/4, NW 1/4) in Nov. 1848. This land was next to a William Crabtree (1858) NW 1/4, NE 1/4, S 32, T3, R12 (Book S--p. 343--Gibson Co)
.....This land was right on the Posey/Gibson line and Moses and his mom, Mary, owned land in Posey Co (1835) right across from the land in Gibson Co. This land is about 2 miles due north of Poseyville.
.....Evidently, the Goodwins and Crabtrees had land close to each other. By 1858, William had married his second wife.

Notes for WILLIAM GOODWIN:
Virtually nothing is known about William Goodwin, son of Aaron. According to family tradition, he was a blacksmith born in Pennsylvania of German descent. (However, Germans spell the name Goodwyn or Goodwine.) He had 9 children. Family stories say one daughter married a Daniel Jones, and one lived and died in Coward, Indiana.

THE WESTERN SPY AND HAMILTON GAZETTE (vol. III, Saturday 1 May 1802) has a Sutherland and Brown in Hamilton having William Goodwin's blacksmith tools for sale as a result of their suit.

On 22 Dec 1802: Elizabeth Rigdon m. William Gooden, James Rigdon father Eliz. bond French Martin. Mason Co., Ky.

In 1805, a delinquent tax list for Fleming County, Kentucky, lists William; "Reason not collected: to Mason." (KENTUCKY ANCESTORS, vol. 19, #2)

Possible listings for him:
-1790 tax Jefferson County, KY
-1792 tax Jefferson County, KY
-1800 tax Jefferson County KY for a William R. Goowdin

-1810 Hamilton County, OH (Cincinnati) for a William R. Goodwin
-1817 Hamilton County, OH (Cincinnati) for a William R. Goodwin

In Mason County, KY Book M, page 269, a William and Elizabeth Goodwin witnessed a deed on 20 September 1811.

In Mason County Book M, page 394, 29 September 1812; Book M, 402, 29 September 1812; and Book N, page 72, 24 December 1812, William Goodwin witnessed deeds. In Book O, page 114, on 1 December 1812, he witnessed Jesse Hord's will.

In 1840 they are listed on the census with 1 M <5, 1 M 5-10, 1 M 50-60, 1 F 10-15, 2 F 15-20, 1 F 50-60.

Their son Ira Francis Goodwin m. 1883, Fleming Co., Ky to Sarah A. Saunders (d/o Austin R. and Jurusha Jane Gilkinson)

Posted by goodwin on Sat, 12 Sep 1998, in response to
GOODWIN-FARRIS-GILKINSON-SAUNDERS, posted by Dorothy M. Bond-Dittmer on Sat, 15 August 1998. These goodwin's are buried at Eden Chapel in Fleming Co. but William age 68 can be found in the 1850 Lewis Co. census with Willaim A. age 16 . They are living with Ira Hale and wife Rebecca and children James & Sarah.

August 29, 1774: John Hinkson for 200 pounds to Thomas Galbraith of Ligonier in Westmoreland, PA 2 improvements adjoining the lands of Joseph Brady, Samuel Gibb, Michael Huffnagle, George Finley (or Findley), Abraham Hendricks, Robt. Johnson and George Cummins. (Interesting because Susanna died at Hinkston Station, KY, and Enoch claims Abraham Hendricks as a grandfather....)

Posted by mgoodwin on Sun, 14 Feb 1999, in response to Goodwin, posted by Jane Leavell on Wed, 28 Oct 1998
We're back after a long absence! Our gg grandfather James William Goodwin was 1st married in Fleming Co. to Polly Penland 2nd Harriet Shane, 3rd Patience Applegate Jan. 13, 1841 in Greenup Co.KY. We are descended from Patience & James oldest son Josiah. We've published a book with old family pictures about Josiah & descendants. Bluford was the 2nd child of James & Patience. He is in the 1880 Lewis Co. Census in the Poorhouse, probably buried in the cemetery there. Our grandfather told our father about Bluford's visits to Josiah. Theopolis died 3-27-1864 in Alton, Ill. in Federal Prison. He is buried in the Confederate Cemetery there. Apparently there were two Melissa Stagss. We will be happy to exchange data.

Children of WILLIAM GOODWIN and ELIZABETH RIGDON are:

My g.g.g. grandfather James J. Hurst was born in Springfield, Washington Co. KY in 1805. His first unknown wife was born in VA and died about Dec 1944. Their first known child was Thomas born in 1836. Could this be the James Hurst you seek?

Notes for AARON LEASURE GOODWIN:
Aaron Leasure Goodwin, a tanner and farmer, moved from PA to Marietta, OH and thence to Liverpool, Washington, Indiana. Or did he? Another source says he lived in Pittsburgh, PA; Elizabethtown, OH; Washington Co., Davies Co. IN, and Vevay, Indiana, where he died. He was a Democrat and a Methodist.

Notes for AARON LEASURE GOODWIN:
There was an Aaron Goodwin born about 1797 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio, who married a Lydia Dougan. They had a child, Eliza Maria, born in Cincinnati on 8 Dec 1823 and died 30 Oct 1904 in Pine, Elmore, Idaho. Is this them? Eliza married Henry Howard 14 Apr 1847 in Martinsville, Morgan, Indiana.

From: kirk thurman
Subject: Lydia Dougan
Our records show a Lydia Dougan born abt. 1801 in Cincinnati, Hamilton, Oh. and Married to Aaron Goodwin jun 1816. But the records also show Aaron married to a Lydia Graves. Can you shed any light ?????? They have at least one daughter-Eliza Marie Goodwin born 8 dec 1823.

http://www.gravesfa.org/gen160.htm
.....William Graves (9) married Lydia Dugan on 18 March 1806 in Portsmouth, Scioto Co., Ohio. He died about 1812. Some proof of his parentage is still needed. Lydia secondly married Aaron Goodwin in June 1816. They lived in Delhi Twp., just southwest of Cincinnati, from the time of their marriage until 1835, when they moved to Indiana.
.....William and Lydia may have had another son. A boy 10-15 years of age was living with Aaron and Lydia in the 1820 census, and the 1830 census showed a male, 15-20. The child may have been a younger brother, or possibly Lydia's son by William Graves. (R-3)

5. ENOCH GOODWIN (AARON) was born June 08, 1788 in Pennsylvania, and died 1877 in Nicholas County, Kentucky. He married SARAH B. HOPKINS December 14, 1809 in Montgomery County, Kentucky, daughter of ROBERT HOPKINS and ELIZABETH STONE. She was born August 09, 1789 in New Jersey, and died Bef. 1860.

Notes for ENOCH GOODWIN:
His son says Enoch Goodwin, son of Aaron, was born in Connecticut, but a census record says Pennsylvania.

Enoch was a farmer and Whig in Nicholas County, KY. A county history called him "Tige" Goodwin, one of the early settlers in the Flat Rock Precinct. (HISTORY OF BOURBON, SCOTT, HARRISON, AND NICHOLAS COUNTY, KENTUCKY)

SKETCHES OF RUSH COUNTY, by Mary Alexander and Capitola Dill, 1915) says: "The first school in Walker Township was taught by Reuben Heflin in the old log Baptist church southeast of what is now Homer. Enoch Goodwin taught in the same school when Joseph Cotton and M.B. Hopkins. It is related of these boys that when the teacher went home to dinner they would mount the pupit and declare their tongues should make them a living or they would dispense with them." Both boys later became ministers! But was this our Enoch? Or the next generation?

In the magazine; BOONE YOU COUNTY MAGAZINE, June 1976, on page 18-20 is a history of the Boone Co. Goodwins.

Boone Co History Book, 1984, page 78 that states the following;
In 1866 Enoch Goodwin built a two story building at 115-117 South Lebanon Street, having two business rooms on the ground floor with a spacious upstairs area that was known as Goodwin's Hall. Small skits and lectures were given in this hall from the time the building was erected until in the 1870's.

Notes for WILSON PAULEY:
I am researching William Pauley born ca 1790 in Kentucky. He had the following children: James, Daniel B., William L. and Nancy Pauley. Some of these children were born in Indiana, but later the family settled in Desha and Drew Cos., Arkansas. The son, Daniel is in my direct line.

IGI claims Elijah was born 16 Jan 1807.

[Crabtree.FTW]
Elijah was a Methodist circuit rider. In Jan. 1840, he organized several new churches in Posey county, one at Mt. Vernon. In June, 1847, he left Mt. Vernon for Bloomington where he established the "Christian Record." Daughter Melissa (by Jane) b. 22 Oct 1835 Mt. Vernon, Posey, Indiana and died 19 Apr 1893 Florida, Monroe, Missouri. On 27 Apr 1856 she married James J. Reed in Bloomington, Monroe, Indiana

He sometimes taught school and sometimes was a salesman, but after 1840 was strictly a minister. Per Biographical Sketches of the Pioneer Preachers of Indiana, 1862: " In January, 1840, he abandoned all secular business and gave himself wholly to the word. He had organized several new churches in Posey county - one at Mount Vernon. These, with some Old Christian churches that had come into the Reformation, agreed to co-operate in sustaining him as an evangelist, at a salary of three hundred dollars per annum. Under this arrangement he labored for seven years, annually enlarging his field, which eventually embraced portions of Illinois and Kentucky. "According to a report contained in the Christian Record of that date, he travelled, during the year ending October, 1845, three thousand four hundred and seventy-two miles and preached three hundred and eighty-two sermons. In 1846 he lost nearly three months on account of ill health, yet he travelled, during the remainder of the year, about three thousand miles and delivered two hundred and thirty-one public discourses. To support his family he sometimes taught school, sometimes served as salesman in a store, but always preached as much as circumstances would possibly allow. " HISTORY OF 1ST CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF CARMI, ILLINOIS by Pastor Frank BROWN which seems to have pages on the "Seven Mile Church" of White County, Ills and the key role that the brothers Moses and Elijah (1804) played in his beginning. One item is on page 2 of this church history: (written by W.H. JOHNSON, son of Dr. Martin JOHNSON written ca 1915:
..... ..... Elijah GOODWIN whose mother (then the wife of my Grandfather Johnson) brother Moses and two sisters (Mrs. Luranah Johnson and Mrs. Axie Crabtree) lived in the Prairie......

Text from Haynes, Nathaniel S. History of the Disciples of Christ in Illinois 1819-1914, Cincinnati: Standard Publishing Company, 1915. Pages 521 - 522. This online edition ? 1997, James L. McMillan. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Born: Ohio, 1807.
Died: Ohio, 1889.
Elijah Goodwin belonged to Indiana, as that was his home most of his life. But since no man did more to plant the Restoration movement in Edwards, Wabash and White Counties than he, these lines are due here. At the age of fourteen he became a member of the Christian Denomination. Four years later he was licensed by their conference to preach. In a few years his preaching began to distress their older ministers. He soon identified himself with the Disciples. His ministerial labors in the counties above named, as well as southern Indiana and northern Kentucky, were incessant. Besides, he did considerable editorial work. His book of sermons entitled "The Family Companion" was published in 1873. If any one thinks he was only a common backwoods preacher, let him learn his mistake by reading it. At the time of his decease his talented and accomplished wife was the editor of the Christian Monitor. The closing words of the last of three poems she wrote on the death of her husband follow:
"His glorious crown of silver hair!
His face like marble, pure and fair;
His folded hands, in holy calm,
Worthy to bear the martyr's palm.
I'll lay white flowers upon his breast,
Emblem of his peaceful rest;
Never more for him shall be
The pain of death's Gethsemane."

Born: After 1807, but prior to 1839.
Died: Grayville, Ill.
Was a younger brother of Elijah Goodwin. He had little of school training, but knew the Bible from end to end. He was strong both physically and mentally, and was a born orator. No one ever went to sleep or became indifferent when he was preaching. Through the teaching and preaching of Maurice R. Trimble, of Knox County, Ind., Moses came fully into the Restoration movement a little before his brother Elijah. While Moses Goodwin was preaching for Union Church in Gibson County, Ind., that congregation came over bodily into "gospel order," as they called it, without change of name, officers or records. The only change apparent afterward was that the mourners' bench was used no more and penitent believers publicly confessed their faith in the Christ and were baptized for the remission of sins.
.....Moses Goodwin settled in White County, Ill., some time before 1840. Feb. 24, 1839, he organized the Christian Church at Seven-mile Prairie, which became the mother of all the churches of Christ in White County. His labors were constant and successful, but they undermined his health. He died at Grayville about the time he reached his prime.

Christian Record, April 1856, p. 126. NOTE: This very long obit has been abbreviated below. Material of no genealogical significance was ommitted.
ANOTHER PREACHER GONE.
.....Died, on the 12th day of November, 1855, at his late residence in White county, Illinois, Elder MOSES GOODWIN, in the 47th year of his age. The deceased was a brother to the beloved Elijah Goodwin, so well known as one of the most effective preachers of Indiana. Moses Goodwin was a native of Ohio, but brought to Indiana by his parents when he was but a child.
.....He embraced christianity when he was quite young, and soon began to speak publicly, by exhortation in social prayer meeting. His labors being much blessed, his usefulness soon became apparent to all, and he was encouraged to labor more extensively, in "the word and doctrine." His early labors were confined to Southern Indiana, but for the last ten or twelve years, he has resided in White County, Ill., where he spent much time in preaching the word, through a large district of country.
.....He was very successful in winning souls to Christ. He was emphatically an extemporaneous speaker, never tying himself down to notes, and was much more particular, as to the matter, than the manner of his discourses...
.....Brother Goodwin was among the first who, in southern Indiana, embraced and preached "primitive christianity," as proclaimed by the original witnesses of Christ, the leading principles of which distinguish the "current reformation." And to these principles he adhered to his last moments on earth...
.....In the death of brother Moses Goodwin, a christian wife has lost a kind and affectionate husband, four or five children have lost a tener and beloved father; and the church has lost one of her most effective preachers; but our loss is his great gain, for he has gone "where the wicked cease from troubling, and the weary are at rest."
.....We offer our heartfelt sympathy to sister Goodwin and family, in her great bereavement, and to brother Elijah Goodwin, in the loss of a dear brother and true yoke-ellow.
J. M. M., Editor

Notes for MOSES GOODWIN:
[Crabtree.FTW]
..... Moses was a preacher and is listed on the 1850 White Co., IL census as being 41 years of age, living with his wife, Narcissa who is 38, and their 6 children. They named two of their daughters Mary. The latter two children were born in IL--which meant the family came to IL about 1847.
..... According to other research I received, in 1840 Benjamin Williams and Lydia Crabtree (sister to George Washington Crabtree) were living in Gibson County. Sometime prior to 1850, Ben moved his family to Grayville, IL. His neighbor in Grayville was this Moses Goodwin--one of the founders of the Seven-Mile Prairie Church (1839), a split from the Old Union Church in IN. In 1848, the Williams sold 10 acres of their Gibson Co. property to Moses Goodwin. Moses must have traveled, perhaps preaching, from 1835-1847 from White Co, IL to Gibson Co., IN.
..... I was going over the Johnson material I have because the Johnsons married into my line of Goodwins and they were instrumental in beginning the Seven Mile Prairie Church in White Co. The church no longer stands now. I had an old copy of some xeroxed pages from a book on the History of the Disciples Church in IL and it tells of Arthur Johnson and clan. From the reading and what I now know, I have put together the following relationships and am sending two attachments--one in works and the other in word--tell me if there are corrections.
.....A big question--when exactly did Aaron die? Mary Polly married John Johnson afterwards. This is the paragraph written by the Hon. W. H. Johnson of Lancaster, IL (about 1915):

My great-grandfather, Arthur Johnson, and wife, and my grandfather, John Johnson, and his wife, orginal or charter members of the Seven Mile Prairie Church, had been charter members of the Old Union Church in IN, which organized over 100 yrs ago [I think his timing is off--due to when Aaron
died in 1828--and few churches were organized until after 1816 when IN became a state] About the time the church in Seven Mile was organized (1835), Elder Moses Goodwin (b/o Axie) succeded in bringing Old Union as a whole into the CampbellReformation. Elijah Goodwin (b/o Axie), whose mother--then the wife of my grandfather Johnson, brother Moses and two sisters--Mrs. Lurranah Johnson and Mrs. Axie Crabtree--lived in the Prairie often visited the neighborhood and preached there.

..... An earlier paragraph states the 8 people who were charter members of Seven Mile were Arthur Johnson, Lucy Johnson, John Johnson, Polly Johnson, A. L. Johnson, Luranah Johnson, Martin Johnson and Comfort Johnson. I assumed all are couples, but I don't know where Martin fits.

I show a Moses Goodwin (brother to Achsah--1st wife of George Washington Crabtree) owning land in Gibson Co-- R32, T3, R12 (SE 1/4, NW 1/2 S part of NE 1/4, NW 1/4) in Nov. 1848. This land was next to a William Crabtree (1858) NW 1/4, NE 1/4, S 32, T3, R12 (Book S--p. 343--Gibson Co). This land was right on the Posey/Gibson line and Moses and his mom, Mary, owned land in Posey Co (1835) right across from the land in Gibson Co. This land is about 2 miles due north of Poseyville. Evidently, the Goodwins and Crabtrees had land close to each other. By 1858, William had married his second wife.

http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Meadows/5807/mtpchurch.htm :
Mt. Pleasant Christian Church is located seven miles northeast of McLeansboro, Illinois. This is the oldest Christian Church in Hamilton County. It was founded on August 22, 1851, by Moses Goodwin, who was the grandfather of Mrs. S. M. Blades.

Meetings were held in a barn owned by David Upton until 1855 when a log building was erected on land donated by Jefferson Garrison. This structure was replaced in 1874 by the present frame chapel. This last building has been kept in good repair to this day.

Charter members were: Alfred and Mary Drew, James E. Lee and wife, Jefferson Garrison and wife, Sarah Smithpeters, Jane Reynolds, and Alice Vaughan.

Present enrollment is about 40, with Bible School each Lord's Day with communion following Present members include such names as: Drew, Hutchinson, Ingram, Nelson, Preston, Sabel, Tittle, Tracy, Travis, Sigler, and York.

Moses Goodwin, the founder, settled in White County about l840. On February 24, 1839, he organized the Seven Mile Christian Church which became the Mother of the churches in White County. His labors were constant and successful. He died at Grayville, Illinois, at the peak of his career.

http://www.gencircles.com/users/easinger/1/data/1477.html says that Moses and Narcissa were the parents of Celia A. Goodwin m. Burris Harris b. 3 Apr 1848 in Posey, CO, and they had Clara N. Harris b. 1871. But this site has some other data wrong, and seems to have placed Posey County in Colorado through a typo. Isn't it an Indiana county?

Notes for LOURNA GOODWIN:
..... Susannah and Aaron had 5 sons and one daughter before she died. Aaron went back to Ohio and married Mary Chapman. The sons stayed with their mother's people in KY.

Notes for MARY POLLY CHAPMAN:
..... John and Mary (Polly) were the charter members of the Seven Mile Prairie Church outside Carmi, IL and were also charter members of the Old Union Church (about 1828 or later) in Gibson Co., IN. She was married to John Johnson when Old Union was founded.

Arthur L. Johnson (Lurannah's husband) was Arthur Johnson (spouse of Lucy Harmon). From the History of the Disciples of Christ in IL, on the 24th day of Feb, 1839, the Seven Mile Prairie Church was founded by Moses Goodwin (brother to Achsah), and the eight people who signed as the first charter members were: Arthur Johnson and Lucy Johnson (wife); John Johnson and Polly Johnson (wife); Arthur L. Johnson and Lurannah Johnson (wife); and Martin Johnson and Comfort Johnson (wife). I don't know how Martin fits with Arthur L. Johnson--either a brother or perhaps uncle.
..... On Aug 21 of that year (1839), there were twenty-eight members, Moses had moved to the Prairie and he and A.L. Johnson were elders of the congregation, with John and James M. Johnson, deacons. The Seven-Mile Church was a split from the Old Union Church (founded abt 1830) with Arthur L. and Lucy, and John Johnson and his wife as charter members in Gibson Co. Old Union is close to the county line and I don't know which county it actually is in. But since there is a Johnson Twp. in Gibson Co, I assume Old Union is there.

He was born August 06, 1814 in Christian County, Kentucky, and died February 28, 1887.

Notes for ACHSAH GOODWIN:
Text from Nathaniel S. Haynes, History of the Disciples in Illinois 1819-1914 , pages 434 - 437. This online edition ? 1997, James L. McMillan.
"Hon. W. H. Johnson, of Lancaster, Illinois, writing of these people and this church, says:
'My great-grandfather, Arthur Johnson, and wife, and my grandfather, John Johnson, and his wife, original or charter members of the Seven Mile Prairie Church, had been charter members of the Old Union Church in Indiana, which organized over one hundred years ago. About the time the church in Seven Mile Prairie was organized, Elder Moses Goodwin succeeded in bringing Old Union Church, as a whole, into what was called the Campbell Reformation. Elijah Goodwin, whose mother (then the wife of my Grandfather Johnson), brother Moses and two sisters (Mrs. Luranah Johnson and Mrs. Axie Crabtree) lived in the Prairie, often visited the neighborhood and preached here. Moses Goodwin and Fenton Lumm, both natural orators and splendid preachers, lived in Seven Mile Prairie and their labors took in all the surrounding country. My uncle, Arthur Johnson, one of the first elders, was an able preacher and a strong defender of the faith, but never became an evangelist. He conducted three public discussions successfully. Frank Murdock, S. F. Rogers, Barton W. Kello and Isaac Kello were faithful ministers sent out by Old Seven Mile Prairie Church.'"

Notes for GEORGE WASHINGTON CRABTREE:
A major source is http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~monticue/William_Crabtree_Descendants_Helens_Line.htm

.....The Crabtrees, Johnsons, and Goodwins were charter members of the Old Union Church in Posey/Gibson Co., IN. Due to a split in the church, Moses Goodwin (brother of Achsah) was instrumental in the establishment of the Seven-Mile Prairie Church in IL (1839). The split was not without bitterness. Many of Benjamin Williams (husband of Lydia Crabtree) family, and the Johnsons (Ben's mother's family) had been members of Old Union at its beginnings. After the division, most of the Williams's family members continued in Old Union while many of the Johnsons affiliated themselves with the Seven-Mile. Arthur Johnson and at least one son and two grandsons, were charter members of the new church. Axie and her family were living in IL by the 1850 censes--their oldest was 7 and youngest was Narcissa who was not one year old. The children were born in IN. Sometime before 1850 or before the census, they moved from Gibson Co., to IL.
.....Charter members of the Seven-Mile Church included Arthur Johnson, Lucy Johnson, John Johnson, Polly Johnson, A. L. Johnson, Lurannah Johnson, Martin Johnson and Comfort Johnson.

Posted by Helen Keusch on Wed, 25 Mar 1998
I am seeking descendants and ancestors of the family of William Crabtree and Sarah (Sallie) Bennett who came to Posey County about 1816 from Christian Co., KY. One of their children, George Washington Crabtree, married Achsah (Axie) Goodwin--daughter of Elijah Goodwin of Posey/Gibson Co. George and Axie's daughter, Narcissa Goodwin Crabtree, married Abraham Land--son of Abraham Land and Sarah Edwards of Gibson Co. I do have quite a bit on the Lands and Crabtrees, but would like to extend the Bennett, Edwards, and Goodwin lines. Thank you.

CRABTREE, CRABTREES, GOODWIN, GOODWINS, LAND, LANDS posted by Helen Keusch on Friday, June 12, 1998
I am seeking information on the George Washington CRABTREE, Elijah GOODWIN and Abraham LAND families. George was the son of William Crabtree (NC>KY>Posey Co., IN) and married Achsah (Axie) GOODWIN, daughter of Elijah GOODWIN. Axie had 2 known siblings-- Moses and Lurannah. George and Axie had 7 known children: William Aaron, Benjamin, Elijah Newton, Mary Jane, Narcissa, Mariah Lydia, and Arthur Lewis. Narcissa married Abraham LAND and she and Abe are my great grandparents. This branch of CRABTREES, LANDS, and GOODWINS all moved to White CO. IL about 1870-80's and are buried in White County. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. Helen Keusch

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~monticue/William_Crabtree_Descendants_Helens_Line.htm :
...In a March 9, 1835 Court Case (Posey County), JAMES BENNETT, THOMAS BENNETT and GEORGE W. CRABTREE were charged with assult and battery on DR. JOHN M. HAMILTON. The wife (wf of WM Crabtree), who was a sister of the BENNETTs, had died in childbirth. ( I don't know if Sarah went into labor in Aug, and the baby died then--which was the cause of the beating--HK. Sarah didn't die until Sept (a month after the beating) perhaps from the childbirth effects (my guess--HK). The three men felt the doctor was negligant and beat him up.
...Witnesses were: LEWIS DEFUR, JOHN BENNETT, TURNER NELSON, and JONATHAN JOHN and JAMES EMMERSON. When the case was tried, WILLIAM EMMERSON and SCARBROUGH were not found. The court case papers I do have state that the beating took place on Aug 13, 1834 at Harmony Township in Posey County and the three men were charged with assault and battery with intent to murder. The bail was set at $500.00 which evidently was posted by George W. Crabtree (the defendant), Legro Bennett, William Carry (?) and Caleb Overton. George pleaded not guilty, but was found guilty by the jury in the indictment trial, fined $100.00 and that he be imprisoned in the county jail of Posey County for the term of one month. George asked for a new trial. The new trial was denied, half of the fine ($50.00) was remitted by the governor of IN and the other half of the fine went to a Posey Co. seminary (school for students) to be used for its (seminary's) needs. I don't know if George went to jail for 30 days, but he had to pay court costs, plus $50.00.

Noah Noble
Governor of the State of Indiana
To all who should see these presents, Greetings. Whereas George W. Crabtree was at the recent term of the Posey Circuit Court on a charge of an assault and battery, fined one hundred dollars, and sentenced to one month's imprisonment in the County Jail. Therefore - Be it known that I do hereby remit (--?--) the said Crabtree the said sentence of imprisonment and fifty dollars of the said fine. In testimony whereof I hereunto set my hand and cause the seal of said State to be affixed at Indianapolis this 22nd day of March 1835.
Seal

There's some dispute whether the assault was over the death in childbirth of George's mother Sarah Bennett Crabtree (she was about 42 when she died) or the similar death of an unrecorded first wife.

.....George Washington Crabtree died at his home in Seven Mile Prairie, White Co., ILL of heart disease. He was born in Ky, came to In. he came to ILL in 1848 and settled on the farm where he spent most of his life. He married twice and was the father of 15 children. This is from an obituary written in the Carmi Ill courier.Per the obit:
George Washington Crabtree died at his home in Seven Mile Prairie, White Co., ILL of heart disease. He was born in Ky, came to In. He came to ILL in 1848 and settled on the farm where he spent most of his life. He married twice (Achsah Goodwin and Jane Land) and was the father of 15 children. This is from an obituary written in the Carmi Ill Courier. Per George Crabtree (AR): Jane's petition for letters of administration for Wash's estate dated April 15, 1887 states that Wash died "possessed of 2 lots and one house in Carmi---" So evidently it seems if George and Jane moved back to the farm before he died. HKeusch...
.....The eighth child may have died quite early and been a child of Wash and Axie, since the 1900 census states that Jane Land Crabtree (Wash's 2ond wife) had 7 children with 4 living. (per: George Crabtree, grandson) An eighth child may have been born after the youngest listed--Axie died before 1860 and the youngest listed child was born in 1855. (HKeusch).

This source says Enoch's father was a Jeremiah Goodwin. Given the Susanna Leasure/Lazear/Lashire connection, I am assuming Enoch was the son of this Jeremiah Goodwin. Lord knows, I may be wrong!

An Enoch Lashire Goodwin filed on 29 December 1835 from Franklin County, IN on land in Rush County.

When/where did he die? 22 Nov 1890 in Wallington, Kentucky (which doesn't seem to exist) per http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/28402105/person/26023081796 but no details are given. Another tree gave it as March 27, 1907, but he'd have been over 100 years old. I think they confused him with his son Josiah H. Goodwin. Sources include:
http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/17530007/person/526483279
This tree claims his widow Harriet Armstrong married Josiah Goodwin on 19 Nov 1867 in Lewis County, KY and bore him a child, which seems impossible. I'm sticking to his wife being a Harriet Shane, not that Harriet Armstrong. I think they've confused this Harriet with the wife of his son, James W. Goodwin.

16. ENOCH GOODWIN (WILLIAM, AARON) was born May 30, 1807 in North Bend, Hamilton, Ohio, USA, and died July 13, 1895 in Madison, Tipton, Indiana, USA. He married (1) MELISSA STAGGS March 28, 1826 in Fleming County, Kentucky, daughter of JAMES STAGGS and SARAH BEARD. She was born Abt. 1812 in Fleming County, Kentucky, and died September 15, 1846 in Rush County, Indiana. He married (2) LEVINA SILLS March 09, 1848 in Rush County, Indiana, daughter of JOSEPH SILLS and REBECCA RAIRDON. She was born Abt. 1818 in Ohio. He married (3) RUTH BERRYMAN September 16, 1869 in Tipton, Tipton, Indiana, USA.

Notes for ENOCH GOODWIN:
Enoch Goodwin, son of William, was reared on a farm in Lewis County, Kentucky, and had little opportunity for education.

The 1826 Marriage Bonds include Goodwin, Enoch and Melissa Staggs (James Staggs B. and F.) March 25, 1826

Every other one of his children by Melissa Staggs--that is, Gilson, John, James, and Critchfield--was born "deaf and dumb."

In 1831, he settled in Rush County, IN where SKETCHES OF RUSH COUNTY, by Mary Alexander and Capitola Dill, 1915) says: "The first school in Walker Township was taught by Reuben Heflin in the old log Baptist church southeast of what is now Homer. Enoch Goodwin taught in the same school when Joseph Cotton and M.B. Hopkins. It is related of these boys that when the teacher went home to dinner they would mount the pupit and declare their tongues should make them a living or they would dispense with them."

Both boys later became ministers! But was this our Enoch? It may have been the son of Aaron Goodwin and Mary Chapman. After all, if he little opportunity for education, why would he be teaching?

Per findagrave.com entry for "Melison Goodwin"
Melison is on the list of Hurst Cemetery names and dates taken from a previous reading that was done about the late 1930's. No stones were found at this reading.
Inscription: Consort of Enoch; Aged 40y, 6m, 1d
Burial: Hurst Cemetery, Homer, Rush County, Indiana, USA

Enoch's second wife, Lavina Sills, daughter of Joseph Sills and Rebecca Rairdon, took on the task of caring for his 8 children, as well as having another seven children of her own by Enoch.

Enoch's third marriage was childless. He was 62, Ruth was 56.

He was a Republican from the time that party was formed, belonged to the Universalist Church, and for several years served as Justice of the Peace in Rush County, Indiana.

TIPTON ADVOCATE (Friday, July 26, 1895, page 1, vol. XVII, number 48):
Death of Enoch Goodwin
..... Last Sunday, Enoch Goodwin, father of Lee Goodwin, died at the home of his son at the age of 88 years. He was one among the oldest citizens of Tipton county and was one of her pioneer citizens. He was a prominent and leading man and took an active part in public affairs until incapacitated by age. He was an earnest and ardent Republican and always voted the Republican ticket. Away back in 1872, he went to a political speaking, when Dan Waugh made one of his enthusiastic speeches and the old man was so well pleased with it that he wanted to live until Dan Waugh went to Congress. He did live to vote for him twice.

{This has nothing to do with Enoch, but it was the following article and too cute to pass up:
"She Tackles Him From Three Directions
..... Miss Sina Luttrell, who resides near Kempton, is after Wid Reece, a young man, who robbed her of that which should be pure and holy. As a result of his indiscreetness she has filed three suits against him, and he will have a world of trouble of getting out of all of them. One of the suits filed charges him with bardery, another charges him with seduction and the other is a suit for breach of promise. Some time ago he was arrested and lodged in jail but was bailed out by his mother. He don't seem to be much concerned about it now, but his time is a coming."}

TIPTON COUNTY HER LAND & PEOPLE 1844-1976 (pgs. 531-532):
ENOCH GOODWIN, father of Leander Goodwin, was born in North Bend, Ohio, May 30, 1807. He is of pure German descent. His grandfather on his mother's side, Judge Sims, bought of the General Goverment 10,000 acres, at 12 1/2 cents per acre, of the tract ceded by the Indians to the United States after their defeat by Anthony Wayne in 1795. This tract he leased for ninety-nine years. As Cincinnati now stands upon it, the descendants, including Gen. W.H. Harrison and Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks, are looking forward longingly to the time when it will fall into their hands. Mr. Goodwins paternal grandfather and grandmother were Abraham and Elizabeth Hendricks. Enoch was reared on a farm in Lewis County, Kentucky, and had little opportunity to secure an education. In 1831, he settled in Rush County, Ind; moved to Kansas in 1854, and returned in 1858. In 1862 he came to Madison Township. He was married to Melissa Staggs, daughter of James and Sarah (Beard) Staggs, of Fleming County, KY, March 28, 1826. By her he had eight children, every other one of whom were deaf mutes. One of the mutes received a fine education, and was for a time a teacher in Baton Rouge, La. Mrs. Goodwin died September 15, 1846. Mr. Goodwin was next married, in 1848, to Lavina Sills, daughter of Thomas and Rebecca (Rairdon) Sills, of Rush County. Mr. Goodwin has been a Republican ever since the birth of that party. For several years he served as a Justice of the Peace in Rush County. He belongs to the Universalist Church, and his wife to the Christian Church.

Per Donnalou Conley's e-mail to "Goodwin" message board at Genforum, July 2003, Theophilus Hendricks Goodwin was the son of William Goodwin and JANE THOMSON/THOMPSON. Family story is he was killed by a saddle horn rupturing his stomach (place unknown - In. or IL.). Theophlius was a subcontracter under the Ritner that was building the B&O Railroad. Pridemore Family History states that Theophlius died from a Saddle Horn rupturing his stomach.

Per HELEN LITTLE DOLENC ( P O BOX 798, PALMER, AK, USA 99645) and LOVENA HAMBLEN (39 N 300 E MONROE UT 84754) in a family tree at http://familysearch.com, Theophles was the son of a Jane Hendricks, born abt. 1786, possibly in Virginia.

William Jr. & wife Matilda are buried in Fleming C., KY near Hillsboro on Route 158 in an old cemetery near Eden Chapel. Also buried there are Ephraum (Ira' brother) Jonathan B.'s wife and son. We are trying to connect Romulus (also a son of William & Matilda) to James W. Goodwin, our great great grandfather. The only connection we have is that Romulus signed the marriage bond for Eliza Goodwin (a daughter of James W.) in Lewis Co., in 1876.

The following transcription is from a 750 page book titled "Genealogical and Biographical Record of North-Eastern Kansas," dated 1900. These have been diligently transcribed and generously contributed by Penny R. Harrell; please give her a very big Thank You for her hard work!
...The Hon. John Benton Hamner is one of the best known citizens of Atchison county, where he has resided almost forty-five years. In his early manhood he passed through the hardships and untold privations of the frontiersman and fully realizes what it means to locate in wild, undeveloped region, to contend with the obstacles placed in the way of success by nature, who yields her undisputed sway most grudgingly and smiles only upon those of the utmost hardihood and bravery of spirit.
...Mr. Hammer was fortunately endowed with a liberal supply of pluck and enterprise, as well as with a strong, rugged constitution, well calculated to withstand trials which fall to the pioneer's lot. His grand-father, James Hamner, who was a native of Kentucky, was one of the early settlers of that state, and his father, John Hamner, was one of the forerunners of civilization in Missouri. The grandfather served as a soldier in the War of 1812.
...The father of our subject was born and reared in Kentucky, there marrying Matilda Sprowl, a native of Tennessee. They moved to Indiana, where they lived for some time, and in 1845 located in Buchanan county, Missouri. Five years later they purchased a farm in the same county, the site of the now thriving city of St. Joseph. Subsequently they crossed the Missouri river and thenceforward were identified with the development of Atchison county.
...The father died in 1861 at Mann's Grove, Kansas, and is survived by his wife, who is seventy-eight years of age. Politically he was a Democrat and religiously both were members of the Methodist Episcopal church, South. The brothers and sisters of our subject were named as follows: Mrs. Margaret Jane Howard; Thomas Franklin; Mrs. Sarah E. White, whose home is near Fort Scott, Indian territory; William B., of California; Mrs. Julia Ann Peebles, of Jefferson county, Kansas; Mrs. Nancy Catherine Walters, of Kansas City; and A. Lincoln, who was born on the day that President Lincoln first took the oath as chief executive of the United States.
...The birth of John Benton Hamner took place near Columbus, Bartholomew county, Indiana, July 5, 1842, and was reared as a farmer's boy, early learning the lessons of industry which have been of paramount importance in his mature years. He was thirteen years old when, on the 5th of June, 1855, he came to Atchison county, which he has since looked upon as his home.
...As may be expected, his educational opportunities of that day were extremely meager, though for some time he attended a district school in Missouri and also for a few months after coming to Kansas. As every student of history knows, eastern Kansas was a battlefield of contending factions prior to and during the Civil War, and Mr. Hamner distinctly remembers numerous occurrences fraught with intense danger and interest to friends or acquaintances of his in that stormy period.
...He was a witness of the placing of the Rev. Pardee Butler, a noted anti-slavery agitator, upon a frail raft which was launched upon the torrents of the Missouri river by a mob of people at Atchison. In his young manhood Mr. Hamner traveled extensively throughout the west and made three trips across the plains. He visited Salt Lake City, Virginia City, Denver and other points when they were tiny mining camps, and on one occasion, June 10, 1863, he was with a train which was intercepted by a band of Indians near Denver.
...After a brave resistance on the part of the white men the latter made their escape, glad to save their lives, and the red skins were the richer by some twenty head of horses, eighteen mules and property valued at about five thousand dollars.
...More than a score of years ago Mr. Hamner purchased his present homestead, the land then being wild. He has since reduced it to cultivation, planting twenty acres of it with orchards, while the remainder, one hundred and forty acres, is kept for the raising of crops and for pasture land. Good improvements and farm buildings make this one of the best farms in Kapioma township. Industry and well applied business principles have wrought out success for the proprietor, who is deservedly popular with all who know him.
...His marriage took place in the Centennial year, his bride being Sarah Ann Hale, a native of Louisiana, Lawrence county, Kentucky. Her parents, Ira and Rebecca (Goodwin) Hale, were both also of the Blue Grass State. They came to Atchison county in 1854, took up a claim here and were among the first settlers of this county. He built a saw mill, where was cut the lumber used in the construction of the first house erected on the site of Atchison.
...Mr. Hale died in El Dorado, Butler county, Kansas in 1886, having survived his wife about twenty years, as her death took place September 3, 1866. She left six children to mourn her loss and three of the number have joined her in the better land.
...James E. Hales now resides in Neosho, Wilson county, Kansas and Londilla is the wife of J. A. Hubbard, of Arrington, Kansas. Of the eight children born to Mr. and Mrs. Hamner, one died in infancy. Walter, now living in Pueblo, Colorado, lost his wife, and their two children Arthur and Mildred, are with their grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Hamner. The younger children of this worthy couple are named Wayne, Florence, Wallace, Mark, Belle and George.
...Our subject and wife are members of the Methodist church and are sincere friends to the causes of religion and education. In 1889 Mr. Hamner was chosen by his fellow citizens to represent Kapioma township as a trustee, and also in 1890, and well did he meet the obligation thus imposed.
...He has ever been faithful to the interests of the majority, as he believes and possesses the respect of even his political opponents.

.....Looking for information on my g-g-grandfather Fred Goodwin (b. Abt 1875 Lebanon). He married Mary Allison Dec. 20, 1899 in Plainfield, IN.
I've been told Fred was the son of Enoch G. Goodwin, Jr. (b. 22 Jun 1823 KY & d. 1909 Marion Co., IN) and Nancy E. Martin (b. Abt 1840 & d. 27 Jul 1895 Royalton, Boone Co., IN). They were married June 15, 1865 in Boone Co.
.....I have had other researchers give me information on Enoch, but most feel his parents were Enoch Goodwin (b. 8 Jun 1788 PA & d. 1877 Nicholas Co., KY) and Sarah Hopkins (b. 9 Aug, 1789 NJ & d. Bef 1860).
.....I would like as much information on Fred and his ancestors as possible.
.....After Mary's death, their daughter Edna Geneva Goodwin was adopted by Charles Cain & Emma (Pike) Allison. I was told that Fred remarried and that his new wife was Native American. No one knows what happened to him after that.
.....Any information would be appreciated. I'm also interested in marriage, death & birth certificates and photographs. I've never been able to find out when Mary Allsion Goodwin died or where she was born.
Thank you,
Kim Nguyen

Notes for CHARLES ADEN RODARMEL:
Dear Ms. Leavell
.....I was so very excited whenever I came across your research on the goodwin family. I almost flipped!!!!!
.....I have looked for years trying to find out information about my descendants and thanks to the internet search engine innovation and you i have a break through.
.....My name is Charles L. Rodarmel Jr. You may refer to me as Chad as do all of my friends. My grandfather was Roy A. Rodarmel. He was the son of Jerry A. Rodarmel. Until this year that was all that I new of my family. My grandfather would never speak of his father to my father or I. My father was only 5-6 when Jerry passed away. Two things have come to light thanks to your hard work.
1)..... Jerry's real middle was thought to have been Adrean, according to my Grandma Rodarmel. We now know that it was Aden.
2)..... The name of my Great-Great Grandfather was Charles Aden Rodarmel who married yoru ancestor Leatha Goodwin.
.....My father told me that we had ties to the Goodwin family however it was never clear as to from which direction. We now know. Further proof that Jerry Aden is the person I know him to be is that we did know that he was married to a Cora Sutherland. My father's oldest sister was named after the very same. My Grandpa held my Great grandma Rodarmel in the highest of regard. He loved her very much. It is my understanding that Jerry is buried at a place called Paris-Crossing, IN not far from Old Vernon, IN and North Vernon, IN.
.....My request to you is this; Do you have any information regarding the father/mother/children of Charles A. Rodarmel, and second, was it your knowledge that Jerry A. was an only child? I would appreciate this very much. If information regarding our family from Jerry A. to present would be of interest to you I would be more than happy to provide it to you.
.....Thank you again very, very much. I thank you and my father thanks you!!!

Notes for NARCISSA CRABTREE:
The children of Abraham and Narcissa are first cousins to the children of Jane Land and George Washington Crabtree because Jane and Abraham were brother and sister. Also, Narcissa was a half sister to these same children because GW was her father and Jane was her step-mother. Narcissa is listed as being born in IN in the 1850 census and being born in ILL in the 1880 census.[Crabtree.FTW]

Notes for ABRAHAM LAND:
..... ..... From the notes of Betty Crabtree:
.....Abraham Land obtained his divorce from Mary E Land in White County, Illinois in Sept of 1867. The Box number was 171. White County is where Caroline Land Harmon obtained her divorce from Bailey Harmon in 1870 (box 185). Seemingly, infidelity was the usual reason, so there are always persons named, although I am never sure that the picture is as black as is painted
.....There was also a case listed as Abraham Land, Defendant, with Eliza J Upton as Plaintiff, action was given as Appeal, Box 57. I was unable to find this file the day that I was there. As I recall, I really did not have the time to ask help from a clerk, and it was not a file of highest priority to me, so I let it go.
.....The Mary Grigsby that Abe married in Indiana was probably sister to Robert Grigsby, husband of Martha Ellen Land. When I eventually find my notes, I will be happy to send you copies of what I have.
[Crabtree.FTW]

.....From the divorce papers, Abraham is the plaintiff and accuses Mary of adultry with Wesley Overton "divers other persons." Mary was not there to defend herself. Abraham did marry Narcissa Crabtree in October of 1867 (Posey Co., IN), one month after his divorce. Narcissa had already given birth to Lewis in White Co., IL, in April of 1867, 6 months before she and Abraham were married. .....
.....Abraham was born a few months after his father had died. He served in the Civil War (60 IN co. B), took part in the Vicksberg Campaign and was captured at the battle of Carrion Crow Creek (Grand Giteau) LA in Nov of 1863. He was prisioner for 2-3 months, went AWOL, and returned. He was docked 2 months pay for AWOL. He was transfered in the 26th IN, was in an army hospital in New Orleans, and mustered out at Willett's Point, NY in the summer of 1865...... .....
.....After Abe and Narcissa were married in Posey Co, IN, they went to Crowley Co. KS where Abraham had some relatives living there. They stayed a few years before coming back to ILL. Abraham became a traveling preacher. His daughter Rose played piano for him at these services. After Narcissa died, he married Olie Brown.

BIOGRAPHY OF ABRAHAM LAND by Helen Kreusch
...Abraham Land, JR was born on March 26, 1846 in Gibson County, Indiana, the son of Abraham Land (1781-1844) and Sarah Edwards. Sarah Edwards was the second wife of Abraham, Sr. The family was from Tennessee (originally from South Carolina) and came to Indiana after 1830 to Gibson County. Abraham, JR, who was a Civil War pensioner, enlisted in the 60th IN, Co B from Poseyville, Indiana, and saw action at Vicksburg, MS, and was taken prisoner of war at the Carrion Crow Creek Battle in LA.
...He was discharged in 1865 at Willetts Point, NY. Abe came back to Gibson County and married Mary Grigsby in 1865. In 1867, Abraham and Mary were divorced and hemarried Narcissa Crabtree, daughter of George Washington Crabtree and Achsah Goodwin.
...After their marriage, Abraham and Narcissa (she was nicknamed "Sis") moved to White County, IL, where other Land and Crabtree family members lived. Their first child, Lewis (born in 1867), was born in White County. The family then went to Cowley County, Kansas, where other Land family members lived. During this sojourn (1868-1882), five children were born. The family came back to White County where the latter four children were born.
...Besides farming, Abraham also preached in the Christian Churches in the area. My grandma, Rosa Land Zuber, would play the piano for him during his preaching. Many of Abe's ten children settled in the White/Wayne County area: Lewis W. Land (1867-1954) married Mattie Aldridge and settled in Arkansas; James M. Land (1869-1903) married Grace Howard and lived in Illinois; Benjamin Newton Land (1871-1949) married Mary Tilton and Nancy Wilson and lived in Arkansas; William M. Land (1874-aft.1900) married Salina Boswell; Forest Henderson Land (1876-1922) married Clara Logan and lived in Illinois; Lulu V. Land (1880-1957) married Dick Olan Clifford and lived in New Haven, Illinois; Martha Jane (Jennie) Land (1883-1959) married Emanuel Daniels and lived in White County, Illinois, and Washington, Indiana; Rosa Tuck Land (1885-1958) married Louis Zuber and lived in White and Wayne Counties, Illinois; Amanda Ellen Land (1887-1962) married James Singletary and lived in Mississippi; and Mary F. Land (1894-1914) married Jesse Gray and lived in White County.
...My grandparents, Rosa Land and Louis Zuber, were married in 1904 and lived in White County close to the Crabtree farm where their three children were born: Norman (1907-1907); James Abraham; and Lena. Louis taught school in White County and then worked in the postoffice in Fairfield. James was my father, served in WWII and carried mail in Evansville, Indiana. Narcissa died in 1916 and was buried in Victory Cemetery in Wayne County. Abraham then married Olie Brown in 1917 and lived in Wayne County. Abraham died in 1932 and was buried beside Narcissa.
