Narrative

Robert Goodale and his family embarked for New England on theship "Elizabeth" of Ipswich (William Andrews, master) in April,1634. In the records of the port it is stated that he was thenthirty years of age. His wife Catherine was twenty-eight, and oftheir three little children Mary was four, Abraham was two, anda baby, Isaac, was only six months old.Where the "Elizabeth" landed her passengers does not appear, butthe first record of the Goodales in America is at Salem, wherethey settled at Great Cove in the North Fields. The spring, sooften mentioned in the early records, in what is now calledLiberty Hill Park, was on Robert Goodale's farm and was knownfor the first half-century of Salem's history as Goodale'sspring. It is not recorded how he acquired this first farm. In1636 and 1638 he received grants of twenty acres each in thatportion of the town which became known as Salem Village, and hegradually acquired by purchase similar grants made to otherearly settlers, until he was the owner of a tract of land atBald hill comprising four hundred and eighty acres, which wasconfirmed to him by a town grant on "7th: 11th mo. 1651." Heprobably moved to this new property at about that time, and, asopportunity offered, disposed of his Great Cove farm, deedingthe house and a portion of the land to his son-in-law, JohnSmith, in 1658. Another lot was conveyed to Nicholas Manning in1667, and a third conveyance was probably made to John Orne, whoowned a part of the property, hitherto unconveyed, in 1684.Goodale seems to have devoted his life to the development of hislarge grant for the benefit of his sons and daughters, to whom,as they married, he gave a generous acreage as a wedding gift,thus creating a family settlement about his own homestead.Although his clear firm handwriting would seem to indicate agood education, he took no part in local or broader governmentalaffairs; and his name seldom appears in the records in anyactive capacity except as plaintiff or defendant in suits basedon the ownership of his land or stock.After the death of his wife Catherine, Robert Goodale marriedMargaret Lazenby of Exeter, with whom he entered into anagreement on August 30, 1669, whereby he promised to settle onher twelve acres of land, "a new dwelling house which I doeintend God willing shortly to build" and "two cowes & a horse ormare fitt for her to ride on." After her death this property wasto go to his son Jacob.(Essex Deeds 6:9)Robert Goodale died between October 12, 1682, and June 27, 1683,the respective dates of the signing and proving of his will,which follows:"I Robert Goodell being now aged & weake, in body as alsoe mywife and my daughter Elizabeth Bennett, hath taken care of meand therefor my will & desire is & I doe will & bequeath unto mydaughter Elizabeth Bennett, & my grand child, John Smith, myhouse & the orchard & all the meddowes that I now possess withthe pasture which is about eight acres of upland be it more orlesse, all which house land & meddowes my Daughter ElizabethBennett, and my Grand child, John Smith, shall Injoy after thelease, or terme, that it is now lett for, is expired, they oreither of them paying as much rent, yearly as the wife of theabovesaid Robert Goodell hath lett it for which is to the valueof twenty shillings in currant pay. dated the twelfth of Octoberon thousand six hundred eighty two: & after my daughterElizabeth's decease, the whole lands shal be my grand child'sJohn Smiths.
