Gooden Mary E. Dunaway, daughter of Quiller and Elizabeth Dunaway, was born in Glascow, Baren County, Ky. June 29th, 1845 and passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Cas. Carr at Rockwell City Iowa, May 2nd, 1925 aged 79 years 10 months and 3 days. Mary came with her parents to Iowa when 11 years old and settled near Monroe. On October 24th, 1861 she was united in marriage to Samuel A. Gooden, moving to their own home near Colfax. To this union seven children were born, three sons and four daughters, James Allen of Wenatchee, Wash., Sanford of Maxwell, Iowa, Mrs. Faidley of Colfax, Mrs. S. P. Meyers of Maxwell, Iowa, Mrs. C. E. Tirmer [Turner] of Knierim, Iowa, Oscar of Pine River, Minn. and Mrs. Chas. Carr of Rockwell City; all of whom where with their mother during her sickness except the son in Washington The husband and father preceding her in death 32 years ago. She leaves besides her children, two brothers and three sisters, J. C. Dunaway of Lutton, Iowa, James of North Dakota, Mrs Harriet Simpson of Barney, Ia. Mrs Martha Stines of Monroe, Mrs. Charlotte Tanner of Newtonia, Mo. and 28 grandchildren, 16 great grandchildren. When a young woman she accepted Christ as her Savior and became a member of the Baptist church to which she remained faithful until two years after the death of her husband when she moved to Rockwell City, Ia., there being no church of her choice she placed her membership in the Christian Church of that city, remaining faithful until death, always attending church when possible until her health became so poor she was not permitted to attend as much as she wished. Being of a quiet, unassuming disposition she never cared for publicity in any way, her interest was centered in her home and family where she was always a kind and loving mother, a good neighbor and friend to all whom she knew. No neighbor or friend ever called on her for help or sympathy but what she was always ready and willing to do her bit. Coming to this state in a coverd wagon drawn by oxen when everything was new and strange, she knew what it was to spin and weave and make all their clothing by hand, besides the many other tasks that fell to them in those days. In 1864, she and her oldest son, a baby watched the husband and father march away to join the struggle between the north and south, where one year later he contracted Bright's disease, received an honorable discharge and was sent home to his family.
