Misc. Notes
of Chester, N.Y. -- Lucinda’s obit.
In 1910, Asa S. Goodrich was living on Washington Street in Saratoga Springs, NY. He was 42, had been married 10 years. He listed occupation as “none.” Interestingly, Minerva listed hers as “own income.” They had a boarder, but no children living with them.61
In 1910 again, Asa S. Goodrich is a boarder in Pittsfield, MA (Francis Avenue). He is 43, listed as single; he was born in NY, his father in VT, his mother in NY. He has no occupation, though he can read and write. He is an assistant pastor in a church (not named). Why do I think this is the same Asa S. Goodrich? He is a boarder in the home of an Ernest G. Smith, who has a wife Ada (?) and mother, Catherine Smith, living with him. Now who the hell are they?61
In 1930, Asa S. Goodrich was in Ruskin, Florida. He was head of household, with wife Minnie K. He owned his property, worth $2500. He was 62, age at first marriage as 20 years. He gave his and his parents’ POB as NY. Home was not on a farm. He had no occupation and was not a veteran.5
There’s an Asa Goodrich in Whitehall in the 1840 census, aged between 70-80, living with 1 woman, also aged between 70-80.
There’s a second Asa Goodrich in Whitehall in the 1840 census, with 1 male 10-15, 1 male 15-20, 1 male 30-40, 1 male 50-60; 1 female 10-15, 1 female 15-20, 1 female 50-60.
In 1917 Asa Stanley Goodrich applied for a passport, indicating that he was living in Saratoga Spa, NY, was an “exec. Boy Scouts,” that he intended to sail for France and England doing YMCA Work on Jan. 2, 1918, sailing on board the Rochambeau, and intended to return within 18 months. He indicated that his father was born in Vermont, and that he was then dead.332
His passport apparently expired while he was abroad, and he filed an application (which was titled “Emergency Passport Appication,” but “Emergency” was x’d out. He indicated that he held an expired passport issued by the Department of State on December 31, 1917, that his legal domicile was in Saratoga Springs, NY, that his temporary residence was at “Paris, Am. Relf Adm.” (American Relief Administration?), that he last left the United States January 7, 1918, arriving at France, “where I am now residing for the purpose of ‘YMCA worer and en route to Italy’”. He indicated that he had resided outside the United States in France from January 1918 to date of filing, and that he desired a passport for use in visiting France (“en route”) and Italy (“YMCA work”), and that he desired and intended to return to the US within 6 months. This was signed 31 May 1919 before the Vice Consul of the United States.332
On 9 July 1921 he made another passport application. Here he indicatd his father was born in Benson, Vermont. He said he had previously been abroad in France in 1918-19 to do YMCA work, and that he now lived in the U.S. at Chester, New York, “where I follow the occupation of ‘Teacher’.” He expected to visit England for “study and pleasure,” and France for the same. However, England was then crossed out, as was “and pleasure.” He intended to leave from New York aboard the Celtic on July 23, 1921. His passport was issued July 14, 1921. He was then 53 years old, 5’8”, high forehead, gray eyes, long nose, medium mouth and chin, dark brown hair, fair complexion, oval face, and no distinguishing marks.332

Spouses
Misc. Notes
Despite the odd appearance, it does appear that Asa married first a Minerva (listed as “wife of” in census), and then a Minnie. Minerva was 28 years older than Asa. She gave her age as 70 in 1910, and said they had been married 10 years. She gave her POB as NY, her father’s as NY, her mother’s as Germany.61
In 1930, Asa gave his age at first marriage as 20; Minnie K. gave hers as 51, so there must have been a first wife.5
