I'm new on-line with GenCircles. My Goodrich's were originally from CT, I found them in Genesee County, NY. There was a connection to Michigan that I have not figured out. My last identified ancestor is Philo Goodrich in Genesee (b. 1812 d. 1870) -- possibly his father was Elizur Goodrich, and mother Modena Bassett (both born in CT). I believe Philo had a brother, Abram (wife Eliza) who lived in MI around 1850 and then moved to Indiana. I believe both Philo and Abram were born in CT and may have a brother, Elizur, also born there.

Philo's son, Charles Philo, served in the Union Army (NY), then went to Michigan to Adrian College in the late 1860's -- don't know why he would have gone there unless there were still some Goodrich's there.

I have a number of letters just obtained; and will be reading them as time permits.
