Introduction
This page tries to capture the various pieces of information I have on
Goodworths in the U.S.A., including U.S. census info. up to 1930.
At the moment it only covers the families who were in Pittsburgh
or Ohio around 1900, not e.g. the Utah families or the descendants of Richard Goodworth
in Massachusetts & California. The GOODWORTH Allegheny/Pittsburgh families seem
mainly to have stayed in PA or migrated to Florida and Ohio. As usual, trying to
trace what happened to the women tends to be a little harder...
There's obviously quite a lot of guesswork here, and any help in sorting this
info. out would be appreciated.
Anyone trying to use the (in my opinion excellent) search facilities on
Ancestry.com, particularly the US 1920/1930 census searches, please note the
various comments I have posted there - as far as I can see, in the vast majority
of cases, if the people indexed under "GOODWORTH" in the 1920/1930 census
returns are not here, it is probably because when I looked at the census images,
the names looked more like Woodworth, Goodsmith, Goldsmith, Goodwright, and so
on. But don't let that stop you looking for yourselves - when you see the
nearest thing to the originals you can get without actually looking at the
originals, it's easy to see why it is so hard to transcribe these entries
correctly. If you disagree, please (a) get in touch and (b) post your own note
via Ancestry!
The very best data appears to be for the 1900 census, which list month and
year of birth rather than just age, number of years married, and for married
women, number of children and number of children still living.
Descendants of John & Elizabeth GOODWORTH from Leeds, England
This is an extended copy of relevant information from the
Leeds page. John was a clothier in
Wortley. He and his wife emigrated at some point (probably in the 1840s) to join
their son(s) in the USA. They were living in Ward 3, Pittsburgh in the 1850
census, where John is described as 74 years old, cloth mft. entrepreneur,
merchant. Elizabeth is also aged 74.
The two sons who appear to have emigrated before them were James and
Benjamin.

James GOODWORTH? The Marriage
record says he is from Wortley but perhaps he originated somewhere else
Clothier
Could this also be the James GOODWORTH who travelled to the US aged 35 in
1847 on the "Liberty" (Arriving 26 Nov 1847? Guessing that it is, and that Sarah
travelled separately on the "Isaac Wright" in 1849 with her children, and
putting this together with various Civil Registration Births in Leeds,
suggests the various conclusions in italics
James born about 1812
1866: Naturalization
1870: Pittsburgh Ward 13, Laborer aged 50, born England
1880: Ward 11 (Street: Porter), Carpetweaver aged 68

John GOODWORTH
b. about 1836
Appears to have arrived in the USA in 1849.
Perhaps the John Goodworth mentioned in one or two US Civil War records.
Perhaps (slightly wrong age) the John Goodworth, laborer, aged 30, in 23
Ward Pittsburgh in 1870, married to Eliza aged 28.
The correct age for a blacksmith aged 43 in the 1880 Pennsylvania
census. |
m. before 1870 |
Elizabeth TUNSTALL
b. about 1843, Peebles
1870: aged 28
1880: aged 39, keeping house
If this is the correct Elizabeth, which is what I am assuming,
she was the daughter of Joshua TUNSTALL, who kept a dairy farm on Squirrel
Hill,. Joshua died about 1891. One of Elizabeth's brotherswas WIlliam
MilesTUNSTALL b. 23 Aug 1849. He achieved local fame by becoming secretary
and treasurer of the Homestead valve manufacturing company. Elizabeth's
husband is mentioned as John B Goodworth.

Jeremiah Albert GOODWORTH
b. bmd Sep 1846 Leeds 23 430
Transcribed as "Lere" from the list of passengers on the "Isaac Wright"

a fairground in Warren, Trumbull, Ohio in 1889/1890 and had three children,
one with Hattie CRAWFORD:
- Charlotte GOODWORTH, m. George WELLS 10 Apr 1903 Ionia, Ionia, Michigan,

m 2. between 1847 and 1850 USA ?
I have been contacted by a relative Margaret WRAY who provided the WRAY
info. given here.
Margaret was the sister of Jane Wray HINDMAN. Family, perhaps Jack/John and
Sarah WRAY, came from the Letterkenny area of Donegal, Ireland
John HINDMAN (aged 18 in 1880) was the son of Jane Wray HINDMAN. John S
McCORKEL was the son of Margaret's other sister, Mary Wray McCORKEL.
There's more, but if you need to know, contact me and I'll try to put you in
touch,. |
Margaret WRAY
b. about 1820, 1860 census says Ireland, 1870 says England
1880: aged 64 from Ireland
In 1880 there is a John HINDMAN aged 18 working on the farm (perhaps even
says "son-in-law" but I can't be sure. He is from PA, with parents from
Ireland. There is also a John S McCORK(E)L aged 28, born PA, parents from
Ireland, boarder, carpenter. |

Joseph GOODWORTH
b. about 1850, PA, both parents from England, so not sure the parents are
correct.
I have now (July 2003) put Joseph as a son of Benjamin
because he is a brother of Charles, and the descendants of
Charles' son Willam Earl believe their connection goes back to Benjamin.
But perhaps there are still some twists and turns on this one. Are they
brothers? Or half-brothers?
Notice that there is also a James b. 1852
and working for farmer William Torrace in Elizabeth county in 1870, and a Jane b.
1856 and with the Prescott family in 4 Ward Allegheny in 1870

Can't work out how this Joseph relates to the above. If the 1850 Joseph is a
son of Benjamin, this Joseph is more likely to be a son of James. But I am
wondering whether the Joseph shown as Charles' brother in the 1880 census as
aged 30 is actually just 13 (i.e. the census enumerator misheard). Then
everything would fit except for the absence of both Charles and Joseph from the
1870 census.
