Note: I have found no land registry records that link Charles James Goodfellow to 40 Parliament Street. I'd love to be corrected on this, but consider the following: Book 009 of the Colborne Land Registry Records contain records for Concession 2, Lot 28, labelled on the map as "Scott & Spencer's Plan", because the southern part of it is west of Spencer Street and east of Durham Street. Most of the Village Lots are either along the north side of Scott Street or south of it. Note that the 1878 map called the north-south street Furnace St. and not Parliament. That is because of Reuben Scott's foundry on the creek here. The modern property called 40 Parliament Street is the second house south of Scott Street, on the east side of Parliament. On the map, it is clear that this is Village Lot 29. Oddly, lots 29, 30, 31 and 32 are never mentioned in the pages of Book 009. The corner lots of 26, 27 and 28 are mentioned a few times, as well as 33 which is farther south at the pond, but never the four lots in between. This seems bizarre and I looked over the details several times to make sure I did not miss anything. The map seems very clear although there may have been some kind of unusual naming convention or administrative step that results in this. Really, it is very annoying. I look forward to some advice from anyone who might be able to shed light on this.

At that time, that was the age you could leave school. This means that Charles had been at the Goodfellow farm for two years when his uncle Bill was elected as an MPP. Phil explains that both Bill Goodfellow and Charles Buchanan regretted later in life their limited education. Charles felt it when he started to deal with other ministers who had university educations and Bill experienced it during his time in Cabinet. In each case, common sense and "people skills" were much better assets than a diploma. It also adds extra meaning to the time Bill Goodfellow saw Rev. Charles Buchanan after he was ordained and told him how proud he was that there was a minister in the family. Dad told me that story many times, with an extra edge to his voice.

When it was time for he & Barb to drive back to Ontario from Florida in the spring of 1983, he admitted to a general weakness as a result of several ‘spells’ (probably mini heart attacks) during the winter. As a result, my sister Ada flew to Florida, got them back to Toronto by air, and started driving their car back to Ontario (I met her in Atlanta and we had a ball driving back together). The weekend before he died, he requested his 4 living children to gather at Shirley & Jim’s where we spent a great time listening to him reminisce (why didn’t we tape it!?!). And then he was gone - without any suffering!" (per email from Phil Goodfellow, Nov 15 2011)
Death Notice in Tweedsmuir Histories: "News of the recent death of William A. Goodfellow, MLA for Northumberland from 1943 to 1963 will recall to those who lived through the period he was serving this area that he was one of those outstanding public servants the area has been fortunate to have represent its ridings. .... He retired from politics and enjoyed a long retirement, first operating a motel in Florida and then simply taking life easier." Day of death from Shirley Bird
Note: "By the way, the Tweedsmuir Histories are mistaken when they claim that Dad operated a motel in Florida - he wintered in Florida in 2 different facilities which kind of resembled motels for the 20 years of his retirement, but didn’t own or manage them (he would have had a great hoot over that rumour!)." per email from Phil Goodfellow, Nov 15 2011.^5,13 He was buried on 23 May 1983 at Mount Olivet Cemetery, Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Memorial: (See Exhibit) GOODFELLOW; W.

The Comstock Lode was the first major U.S. deposit of silver ore discovered under what is now Virginia City, Nevada on the eastern slope of Mt. Davidson, a peak in the Virginia range. After the discovery was made public in 1859, prospectors rushed to the area and scrambled to stake their claims. Mining camps soon thrived in the vicinity, which became bustling centers of fabulous wealth. The excavations were carried to depths of more than 3,200 feet (1,000 m).

They had heard that silver mines were beyond the mountains in Nevada. The 2 miners made a hazardous trip through the mountain trails of the Sierra Nevada. They soon came to a large mining camp where Carson City is now located. Large quantities of silver were being dug from this mine at 1,800 feet below the surface. Because the prospects looked so good, John and his friend made up their minds to work there. Next morning when they were interviewed by the foreman, they learned a timekeeper was needed. Because John had a fairly good education, he was able to take this job. He liked this work and it paid well. Perhaps now he would soon earn enough to return home." per "My Great Grandfather was a "59er" by Ellen Campbell, copied from The Tweedsmuir Histories of Codrington.⁶ He lived in 1867 at Silver Mine, Carson City, Ormsby Co., Nevada, U.S.A; "The time-keeper at the Nevada Mine continued to work faithfully to build up his savings.
