Notes for Caroline HIGGINSON

Records of Woodlawn Cemetery, Guelph, Ontario, Canada, show that in Section F, Row 9, are buried Arthur H. Goodeve, born 1821, died 1889, and his wife, Caroline Higginson, born 1826, died 1909. Also are buried there are the children of A. H. and C. Goodeve, Charles Wallace, born 1856, died 1904; and Mary Jane, born 1862, died 1865. The cemetery records show that all four of them were living in Guelph. The children were shown as natives of Canada, while Caroline was shown as a native of Ireland and Arthur Goodeve a native of England. Caroline's date of death is shown as February 11, 1909, due to "advanced age" at age 86; and she was buried on February 13, 1909.

A notice in the "Guelph Advertiser" on April 2, 1847, shows that "On Tuesday last, by the Rev. E. Martin, Miss Caroline Higginson" was married "to Mr Arthur Henry Goodeve, both of the township of Guelph."

A letter written probably in the 1850's or 1860's from Samuel Higginson of Amador County, California, to his sister, Amelia Higginson, refers to Caroline and their previously living in Canada. This Caroline Higginson Goodeve must be the sister of Amelia Higginson Thurtell.
