Biography
b. June 16, 1775; m. Nov. 1, 1795, Capt. Daniel Goodwin. She d. May 31, 1861. She is said to have been a woman of strong character and self-reliance and interested in all out of door pursuits. She, like her sister, was fond of reading and given to writing letters old-fashioned and entertaining. Her husband was away at sea much of the time, and all the care of a large family devolved upon her. Her children did credit to her training. Four sons and three grandsons became clergymen in the Episcopal Church.[1]
