GOODMAN, MARGARET M ARCHIBALD SMEATHERS
GOODMAN,MARGARET-searching for info on Margaret. Marr Archibald Jacob Smeathers July 22 1824 Daviess Co.,Indiana. Archibald son of Wm Smeathers of Va. Margaret & Archibald had 1 dau-Mary Jane b Sept 11 1825 Dubois Co Indiana. She marr Alexander H. FosterNov 13 1842 Dubois Co Indiana. They went to Tx abt 1853 to meet Mary Jane father, Archibald in Burleson Co Tx. In a 1910 letter Mary Jane Smithers Foster wrote to her Uncle John [both were in Tx] she says her mother [Margaret] died when she [MJ] was 13 months old..so this would be around Oct 1826 in Indiana. She goes on to tell her Uncle John that the Goodmans of Indiana raised her until she sold her father's home and went with her husband, Alexander, to Tx to meet her father Archibald. She died in 1913 in Tx. I do not have any more info on her mother at all. Would like to find her parents or the Goodman's who raised MJ in Indiana. any info would be welcome that might connect, thank you.
