"Thomas Goodwine (deceased) was born in Kentucky August 10, 1810, and was a son of James and Elizabeth (Snyder) Goodwine. The parents of Thomas came to Indiana (then the Northwest Territory) when he was five years old, locating first in Jackson, then in Bartholomew, and came to this county in 1828.

Mr. Goodwine was a soldier of the Black Hawk War. Thomas began the work for himself when twenty-one years of age, his father having given him 240 acres.

On August 27, 1834, he was married to Miss Eliza A. Baird, a native of Ross County, Ohio, daughter of James and Elizabeth Baird. This union was blessed with ten children - James S., John C., Wesley, William W., Rosalin, Elizabeth C., Jennie H., Thomas H., Julian, and Scott W.; of these five are deceased.

Mr. Goodwine died October 1, 1872. Mr. Goodwine had four sons in the late war - James S., John C., Wesley and William W., the last having died at Bridgeport, Alabama, and Wesley at home from wounds received in the service.
