Biography

Recorded as written:

John Pantry Goodwin (John Pantry 48, Hezekiah 46, Nathaniel 44, William 4, Ozias 3) baptized April 1, 1759. A John P Goodwin was a private in the company of Capt. Jonathan Wadsworth of Hartford, in the regiment commanded by Col. Thaddeus Cook, which was ordered to reinforce General Gates at Saratoga, serving from August 26 to November 3, 1777 and was in the battles of Stillwater, September 19 and October 9 of that year. It is probably this man of eighteen years of age and unmarried rather than his father of the same name who was then nearly sixty years of age and the father of several children. He removed with his father to Sharon, Conn. in 1783 and located on a farm just north of his father's where he died before November, 1812. His widow Nancy ( Rogers) Goodwin, of whose previous history nothing is known, removed to Olive, Ulster County, New York, where she died, date unknown.
