Read More	Also known as: Tip Following a period of active and honorable service in the Union army during the Civil war Harrison Jackson Goddard returned to Winneshiek county, where he had resided since childhood, and took up his residence upon a fine tract of land which he called the Maple Grove Seed Farm and upon which he has engaged in general farming since that time. He is largely familiar with the pioneer history of this section and the years have brought him steadily increasing prosperity so that he stands today among the worthy and substantial citizens of the locality where he makes his home. He was born in Calhoun county, Michigan, April 25, 1840, and is a son of Josiah and Hannah (Harris) Goddard, the former a native of Massachusetts and the latter of Canada, but afterward a resident of Detroit, Michigan, where in her girlhood she worked for General Hull. She was living in Fort Dearborn at the time of the famous massacre and remembered the circumstances very well until the time of her death. The father of the subject of this review was a veteran of the War of 1812, having served five years in that conflict, and he came as a pioneer to Winneshiek county, locating in this part of Iowa in 1849 and buying land at the old Indian trading post. He turned his attention to farming and in this occupation spent the remainder of his life, his death depriving the county of one of the earliest and greatest of her pioneer citizens. Mr. and Mrs. Josiah Goddard were the parents of twelve children: Henry, Alelissa, Susan, Mary and Josiah, Jr. all of whom have passed away; Samuel Calhoun, of Charles City, Iowa; Ferdinand K., deceased; Amazo Lafayette, who served in the Civil war as a member of Company D, Thirty-eighth Iowa Infantry; Alonzo Washington, twin to Amazo, and a resident of Fort Dodge, Iowa; Harrison Jackson, of this review; and William and Sophia, deceased. Harrison J. Goddard was nine years of age when his parents moved to Winneshiek county and he has since made his home in this part of Iowa. On the 20th of July, 1864, he enlisted in Company C, Thirteenth Iowa Volunteer Infantry, and served with credit and ability until the close of hostilities, receiving his honorable discharge at Davenport in 1865. Returning home, he turned his attention to farming and in this occupation has since continued. His homestead contained originally one hundred and sixty acres but he has since given eighty acres to his son, retaining a tract similar in extent for himself. He makes a specialty of growing a high grade of seed corn called Silver King, and the Maple Seed Farm contains also a well cultivated ginseng garden. His business interests are always capably managed and systematically conducted and have brought him in the course of years a gratifying measure of success. On the 1st of January, 1869, Mr. Goddard was united in marriage to Miss Rhoda Horton, who was born August 14, 1851, and who died February 3, 1912. To this union were born four children: Lola, who was born August 30, 1869, and who married Frederick Krumm, of Fort Atkinson; Nellie, who was born October 2, 1870, and who died on October 9th of the same year; Edith, who was born September 9, 1871, and who died September 27, 1891; and Ernest, who was born October 26, 1874, and who is now residing in Fort Atkinson. Mr. Goddard gives his political allegiance to the republican party and takes a commendable and intelligent interest in the affairs of the community where he has resided since pioneer times. He attends the Methodist church and belongs to the local post of the Grand Army of the Republic. A life of activity and usefulness has been rewarded by prominence and prosperity and has won for him an enviable position in the regard of his fellowmen.
