General Notes: Husband - Daniel Goodlander


He was a boy of seven when he accompanied his parents to a home in Brady township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania. He attended school during the winter months for some years while assisting on the farm and in his father's shop. In 1846 he joined the Brady Guards, under Capt. P. W. Barrett, as a regular volunteer and remained in the service six years. The first seven years of his wedded life were spent on a portion of his father's homestead. In 1860, having been elected justice of the peace in Brady township, he bought a dwelling and store in Luthersburg from R. W. Moore, and moved to that town. In the same year he engaged in the mercantile business. In 1865 he purchased sixty acres from Mr. Moore, adjoining the town, and laid it out as addition, the C. & M. depot occupied a portion of it. In 1866 he bought from Adam Miles sixty acres of land covered with heavy pine timber, and in 1873 he added to his possessions the John Thompson farm of 115 acres, adjoining Luthersburg, and the James Miles farm of 127 acres. Later he purchased a hotel built by R. W. Moore, and after conducting it for some years as a hostelry, he converted it into a dwelling house for himself and his family. Mr. Goodlander always took much interest in public affairs, and was a Jacksonian Democrat in his political belief. He held the office of justice of the peace for five years, and filled a number of other positions.
