This Day…



November 22, 1753

At Orange County Court, November 22, 1753, on motion of William Johnson, €certificate was granted him for obtaining letters of administration on the estate of Andrew Harrison, (compilers 6th great grandfather) deceased, Elizabeth, widow of the said Andrew Harrison, and Battaile.. Harrison, the heir-at-law, having refused. William Johnson’s bond was placed at two hundred pounds currency.”

“Inventory and appraisement of the Estate of Andrew Harrison, deceased, made November 30, 1753. Returned & Recorded, March 1, 1754.” [1]



At that time, Andrew2 Harrison's plantation amounted to 1,300 acres. His personal estate was appraised at 27 pounds 15 shillings. His inventory included household goods and furnishings, cattle and farming implements, but it listed neither weapons nor slaves. [2]



George Washington Diaries while on Canoe Trip with William Crawford and William Harrison, 6th and 5th great grandfathers, respectively:



November 22, 1770. Invited the Officers of the Fort and other Gentlemen to dine with me at Samples.





November 22d, 1770.—Stayed at Pittsburg all day. Invited the officers and some other gentlemen to dinner with me at Semple’s, among whom was one Dr. Connelly, nephew to Col. Croghan, a very sensible and intelligent man, who had travelled over a good deal of this western Country both by land and water, and who confirms Nicholson’s account of the Shaw­nee river, up which he had been near four hundred miles. ‘This country, I mean on the Shawnee river, according to Dr. Connehly’s description, must be exceedingly desirable on many accounts. ‘The climate is fine, the soil remarkably good ; the lands well watered with good streams. and level enough for any kind of cultivation. Besides these advantages from nature, it has others not less important to a new settlement, particularly game, which is so plentiful as to render the transportation of provisions thither, bread only excepted, altogether unnecessary. Dr. Connelly is so much delighted with the lands and climate on that river, that he wishes for nothing more, than to induce one hundred families to go there and live, that he might be among them. A new and most desirable government might be established there, to be bounded, according to his account, by the Ohio northward and westward, by the ridge that devides the waters of the Tennessee or Cherokee river southward and westward, and by a line to run from the Falls of the Ohio, or above, so as to cross the Shawnee river above the fork of it. Dr. Connehly gives much the same account of the land between Fort Chartres, in the Illinois country, and Post St. Vincent, that Nicholson does, except in the article of water, which the Doctor says is bad, and in the summer scarce, there being little else than stagnant water to be met with.



THE PRESIDENT OF CONGRESS TO GEORGE WASHINGTON.[3]

YORK TOWN November 22, 1777.

Sir— The last I had the honour of writing to you was dated the 19th.[4] Your

Excellency’s Letter of the 17th. instant was [sic] inclosed Copy of a Paper from Mr. Zantzinger[5] and a Return of deficiences in Clothing for the Army came since to hand and have been presented to Congress—and by their order Committed to the Boards of War and Treasury from whom no Reports have yet come up, I am thereby left without Instruction for making the necessary reply.[6]

Late 1777

Late in 1777, Crawford returned to his home, having been sent to the West by Washington to take a command under Brigadier General Edward Hand. [10]



November 1777



The Continental Congress took this action in November, 1777; “Resolved, that General Washington be requested to send Colonel William Crawford to Pittsburgh to take command, under Brigadier General Hand, of the Continental troops and militia in the Western Department.” He left Whitemarsh[11], near Philadelphia, where he conferred with Washington; then stopped at York for instructions; and proceeded to Pittsburgh. There is little record of his actions there, except the building of Fort Crawford at the mouth of Puckety Creek (at present New Kensington). He seems to have returned home to the Youghiogheny River where he resumed his duties as a land officer for the new Yohogania County, Virginia. He appears many times in the Yohogania court where he was a gentleman justice, as the Virginians called their judges. His last military service was in the ill-fated expedition to Sandusky, where the Indians burned him at the stake.[12]

In the year 1784, he must have been living’ in Fayette County, Penn­sylvania, as is evidenced by a deed, dated November 22, 1784, a copy of which will follow.

November 22, 2009



Jeff, thanks for your daily email of Day in Goodlove History. I had never seen that picture of Grandpa Earl or of my Aunt Jeanette or my father Donald at the age.



My wife Kimberly (Wingate) Goodlove and my sister Vicki Goodlove met Frances Jeanette before she passed several years ago at a Goodlove reunion.



Duane Goodlove



Duane, I remember talking to Kimberly, Vicki and Dennis at the reunion. I was sorry to hear of his passing soon after that. I am studying how our unique DNA and genes can be affecting our health. Would it be possible for you to share your brothers Robert and Dennis’ medical situation prior to their passing?




Sincerely, Jeff



P.S. Here is a picture I found that I took of Dennis at the reunion.
