1807 Estate records of Elizabeth's father, Christian Bowman, in Cumru, Berks County, Pennsylvania, named Elizabeth, married to Jacob Good, as a daughter and heir. [43] A distribution from Christian Bowman's estate was made to Jacob Guth married to Elizabeth. [44]

1810 Jacob Good lived in Brecknock Twp, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in a household with males: 1 (10 thru 15) and 1 (26 thru 44); and females: 1 (under 10) and 1 (16 thru 25). [45] [46].

1840 I have not found an 1840 census listing for Jacob Good (age 59).

1840 Daughter Lydia and Christian Huber lived in Brecknock Twp, Berks County, Pennsylvania. [54]

1844 Jacob Good died on August 12, in Brecknock Twp, Lancaster County [55] [56] and was buried in the Allegheny Mennonite Cemetery [57] [58]. Widow Elizabeth declined administration of the estate, which was then carried out by John B Good, son-in-law. Witnessed by Peter Good. [Photocopy, 1844 Administration of Jacob Good's estate.] [Photocopy, 1844 Inventory of Jacob Good's estate.] [Photocopy, 1844 Inventory of Jacob Good's estate.] [Photocopy, 1844 Account of Jacob Good's estate.]

1860 Samuel Good, half-brother to this Jacob Good, died, unmarried. The settlement of Samuel's estate named the two brothers of Samuel who had heirs: Jacob and John. Brother Christian was not named, since Christian had no heirs. The settlement named the seven sons and daughters of this Jacob Good and the heirs of John Good. [62] [63] [64]

1861 John B Good, administrator, filed his account on the estate of Samuel Good on July 2, showing a balance of $4429.12. Samuel's brother, John Good of Canada, was an heir. The seven sons and daughters of Samuel's brother, Jacob Good of Brecknock Twp deceased, were also heirs to Samuel's estate. Five of Jacob's children were present at the accounting and each received their share of $316.36: Anna Good wife of John Good (miller), Lydia Huber widow, Elizabeth Mosser wife of Benjamin Mosser, Jacob B Good, Sarah Mosser wife of Peter Mosser. [65][66] John B Good was the sixth heir, and Benneville B Good, listed below, was the seventh.

1862 John B Good, administrator, made an accounting of Samuel Good's estate on January 10, with Benneville B Good of Elkhart County, Indiana; one of the sons of Samuel's brother, Jacob Good of Brecknock Twp, Lancaster County. Benneville B Good received $316.36. [67]

1862 John B Good, administrator, made an accounting of Samuel Good's estate on April 4, with the administrators of the will of Samuel's brother John Good of Canada West, who had died since the death of Samuel Good. Solomon Gehman and Joseph Good were the executors of the will of John Good of Canada and received the share due to John Good. [68]

1866 Elizabeth Bowman Good, wife of Jacob Guth, died on July 6, at age 80y, 8m 18d, in Berks County, Pennsylvania. Other sources report the date as June 6. [69] [70] [71] [72] A family record reported [73]:

Elisabeth Bauman weib von Jacob Guth ist gestorben den 6ten Julius 1866 ist alt worden 80 Jahr 8 monat und 17 tag
[Elisabeth Bauman, wife of Jacob Good, died on the 6th of July, 1866, at age 80 years 8 months 17 days.]

An obituary reported [74]:

On Sunday the 8th she was buried at the neighboring churchyard, on which occasion Bish. Moseman preached an appropriate discourse from 2 Tim. 4:6-8.

1890 Documents from the probate records of daughter Lydia Huber and son-in-law Christian Huber named collateral heirs of both Christian Huber and Lydia Huber. [75] The heirs of Lydia Huber are listed below:

The decedent [Christian Huber] died testate of the 15th day of August A.D. 1850 leaving to survive him a widow but no issue, but collateral heirs. The said widow [Lydia] died intestate on the 15th day of Sept. 1889.

Research notes:

Several genealogical summaries have mentioned this family:

Elizabeth Bowman 29, b. in Allegheny Valley. Nov. 20. 17S5: d. Julv 6. 1866; m. Jacob Good. Mennonite; farmer: cabinet maker. Issue: 374 John B.; 375 Lydia; 376 Elizabeth; 377 Sarah; 378 Mary; 379 Nancy. [79]

GC353 Jacob Good, born Nov. 22, 1781; died Aug. 12, 1844, buried Allegheny Mennonite Cemetery; cabinet maker. married Elizabeth Bowman (O133), born Nov. 20, 1785; died July 6, 1866; daughter of Christian Bowman and Anna Huber. [80]

Jacob Good was named as the father of Jacob B Good, born 1817, and as the descendant of Christal Good of Switzerland. [81]

107.-Elizabeth Bowman 29, b. in Allegheny Valley. Nov. 20. 17S5: d. Julv 6. 1866; m. Jacob Good. Mennonite; farmer: cabinet maker. Issue: 374 John B.; 375 Lydia; 376 Elizabeth; 377 Sarah; 378 Mary; 379 Nancy. [82]

See also: [83] [84] [85] [86] [87]

Pennsylvania Mennonite Vital Records agree with these notes, except they show Solomon as a son and do not show Beneville as a son. [88]

Solomon Good was not a son of this Jacob Good:

The seven heirs of Jacob Good named above in the estate settlement of Samuel Good have been listed by other researchers identifying them as children of this Jacob Good (GC353) [89]. Solomon Good [90], born May 12 1820, the same day as Sarah Good (GC3536), has also been listed by many researchers as a child of this Jacob Good. However, Solomon is not a child of this Jacob Good, as shown by documents from the estate settlement of Solomon Good and his wife Isabella Good, who died childless.

1891 The estate of Solomon Good was settled by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on October 5. [91] [92] The auditor's report for the settlement documents the events of the case, including the petition made in 1889 by the surviving brothers of the said Solomon Good, deceased, who were named as Benjamin Good and Isaac Good. [93] Neither Benjamin nor Isaac are among surviving sons of Jacob Good, so Solomon Good, husband of Isabella, is not a descendant of this Jacob Good.
