George Washington to John Hall and John King, October 16, 1755



Winchester, October 16th, 1755



I received yours, and am as much surprised at your delay in repairing to your Rendezvous, as being at a loss for Orders after you did arrive there.



I Order, that upon the receipt of this, you March the Recruits immediately to this place, where Clothes and Ammunition will be provided:for your provision is sent to meet you on Martin Harden’s Road, by which you are ordered to March.



If Captain Harrison is at Fredericksburgh, he is to take Command of the Recruits, and March them up here; if not, do not wait for him; march them up without, and wait there for Orders. You are to provide Linen at Mr. Dicks for Haversacks for the men, and bring it up with you, if you can, conveniently.[1]



October 16th, 1770: .—At Capt. Crawford’s till evening, when I went to Mr. John Stephenson’s, on my way to Pittsburg, and lodged. This day I was visited by one Mr. Ennis, who had travelled down the Little Kenhawa, almost from the head to the mouth, on which he says the lands are broken, the bottoms neither very wide nor rich, but covered with beach. At the mouth the lands are good, and continue so up the river. About Wheeling and Fisher’s creek, there is according to his account, a body of fine land. I also saw a son of Capt. John Hardens, who said he had been from the mouth of Little Kenhawa to the Big; but his description of the land seemed to be so vague and indeterminate, that it was much doubted whether he ever was there or not.



October 16, 1770; At Capt. Crawfords till the evening when I went to Mr. John Stephenson on my way to Pittsburgh and lodged. I also saw a son of Capt. John Hardens of Frederick County, VA who said he had come from the mouth of Little Kenhawa. He says that at the mouth of the big Kanhawa there may be about 20-25000 acres of land that is good and that the falls of the Kenhawa are not about 10 miles of it.[2]

George Washington To THOMAS FREEMAN



Mount Vernon, October 16, 1785.

Sir: It is sometime since I wrote in very great haste an answer, or rather an acknowledgement of your letter of the 9th. of June. I will now by Mr. Craig,[6]a endeavour to be more explicit than I was, or could be at that time. With regard to my Lands on the Ohio and Great Kanhawa, I am not yet inclined to relax from the terms of my printed Advertisement, with a copy of which I furnished you: When I see cause to do it, you shall be duly advertised of the change: in the meantime, if you could discover the most advantageous terms which could be obtained, and would advise me thereof, I should be obliged to you. As to the Great Meadow tract, you may rent it on the best terms you can, not exceeding ten years from the first day of January next.

My sentiments with respect to the Mill were so fully given to you in my last by Dr. Knight[7] that it is unnecessary to add aught on that score now. It has cost me too much already (without any return) to undergo a repetition of the like cx­pence. If you cannot rent or sell her as there directed, let her return to dust, the first loss may be best.

I informed you in my last, and I presume you were convinced of it before, that I made no agreement with the Tenants on the tract near you, which could exonerate them from paying the rents which were then due; consequently they must be made to pay them; otherwise the most deserving of favor (by having paid) are on a worse footing, than the least deserving who ought to have paid before I went into the country and explained the terms on which I had directed them to be let.

With respect to Mr. Simpsons quitting the Tenement, I ob­served to you in my last; that when I make a bargain I consider it,to all intents and purposes, as binding on me; consequently that it is so on the person with whom it is made. He may well remember, that upon his expressing an idea that he would try the place one year on the rent it now goes at, I told him explic­itly he must take it for the period on which it was offered, or not at all; as I did not intend to go thro’ the same trouble every year by making an annual bargain for it; and that he acquiesed thereto. It behooves him therefore, and the Tenant likewise, to consider what they are about, as one or the other will be liable to me for the rent, agreeably to the tenure of the Lease. I in-formed you in my last what had been done with the accounts which were put into my hands by him and Mr. John Jones, and requested him to assign the certificate which I then enclosed, and to return itto me; but have heard nothing from him since on the subject, which is a little surprizing.

I hope the Hay, Corn and other articles have been sold ‘crc this, and that you have received the Cash for them, or good security for the payment of the amount of them.

If Mr. Simpson, contrary to his agreement and good faith, should have moved off my Land; I am at a loss to decide what had best be done with my negroes. It was in consideration of his taking the Plantation, that I agreed to let him have the negroes so cheap: If he is gone, or going from it, he shall hold them no longer on the same terms he has them this year: but my wish would be that you could send them to me at this place, if the measure can be reconciled to them. Simon’s countrymen, and Nancy’s relations are all here, and would be glad to see them; I would make a Carpenter of Simon, to work along with his shipmate Sambo. At any rate I will not suffer them to go down the river, or to any distance where you cannot have an eye over them.

What Capt: Crawford did upon my Land on Shirtee in order to save it, must undoubtedly be well known to those who were most intimately connected with him and his movements at that period. Mr. Chas. Morgan is as likely to possess this knowledge as any other; but certainly there must be more, and it may be essential to find them out and to call upon them as evidences in the cause.

In a former Letter I informed you that I had obtained a Patent for the round Bottom; and that it might be rented on the same terms with my other Lands on the Ohio and Great Kanhawa; and I repeat it in this, lest a miscarriage should have happened.

When I was out last fall, I left all my Baggage at Mr. Simp­son’s, viz, Tents, Bedding and many other things; of which I hope proper care have and will be taken, if he has, or is about to leave the place. Among other Articles there were two eight gallon Kegs of West India rum, one of them of the first quality. As this is a commodity which is subject to a variety of accidents and misfortunes, I request it may be sold: I will take my chance to procure more when I may come into that Country; which, at present, is uncertain. If the Tents and bedding should get wet, and are not dryed, they will be ruined; and therefore pray that particular attention may be paid to them, my Canteens, travelling Trunk &c. &c.

If you have received and paid anything on my account since I was out; it may be well to render a statement of it by Mr. Craig, who will offer a safe and good opportunity to remit what ash may be in your hands consequent of the sales of last fall )r by other means, after you have deducted your commissions. If the Bonds which were taken at that time are not paid agree­Ibly to the terms of them, delay no time to recover the money ts soon as you can; as I am not inclined to be put off with inineaning promises, and obliged to sue at last.

If my negroes are to come down, the sooner it could happen he better for the young ones: and a careful person should be tired to take care of them. In this case I would wish to have iy Baggage (except the Liquor) sent to me at the same time, ne trouble and expence would serve both purposes, I am, etc.[8]

William Goodlove, age 23, born in Ohio

Esther Winans, age 23, born in Ohio

According to the Census Conrad and Cordelia had a great deal of family help in clearing, plowing, and bringing the land into production at Wildcat Grove. [10]





The 1860 census indicated Franklin was living with his grandfather, Conrad, in Linn County, Iowa. Evidently Franklin went to live with his grandfather, Conrad, after his mother, Nancy, died in 1852. His father remarried.[11]

I get Email!

From Peggy Boucher,

..My Aunt Hazel Goodlove Conaway told my sister Ann Jack that her father went to the Gold Fields. We don’t know where that information originated. Since we both have that impression, there must be some validity to it. I have searched Alaska records and found nothing.
Could you send me a copy of page 338 in your notes…?

From Jeff
Peggy, My dad, Gary Goodlove told me yesterday that Oscar went to St. Louis first, and that his father went to find him, and did not. There was a train pass found to that affect at some point. Also, Cory Goodlove also passed this information along about Alaska. I have not been able to locate Cory since.
The information you requested on page 338 is a computer reference to a article written by Winton Goodlove published in the book “A History of Central City, Iowa and the surrounding area, Book II, 1999.” I will send you this writing.

He was born in 1741, and after his service at Point Pleasant acted as colonel in McIntosh’s campaign. (1777). He was lieutenant colonel of his county, and led troops to aid Lafayette (1781) against Cornwallis. He died in 1819. This information was furnished to Dr. Draper by his son, Peach R. Harrison, who died in 1848. See Draper MSS., 8ZZ68. (Dunmore’s War, by Thwaites and Kellogg) This Benjamin Harrison is not currently in the lineage of the Harrison’s connected to my family. More research is needed to see what the connection is, if any. Jeff Goodlove, December 9th, 2005.
