From a website titled “Portrait and Biographical Record - Denver & Vicinity”
JOHN THOMPSON is one of the representative agriculturists of Weld County, and owns one of the finest and most highly improved ranches in this section of the state. To himself alone he owes his present prosperity, as it is the result of years of patient, zealous labor and wisely directed business ability. He has been a public-spirited citizen, doing his full share toward the general welfare, and endeavoring to promote all worthy enterprises to the best of his ability.
Mr. Thompson inherits from Scotch ancestors many of the sterling traits of character he possesses. His parents, Robert and Jane (Pennman) Thompson, were natives of Scotland, and their marriage took place in the land of the thistle. They came to America in 1819, and at first settled in Rhode Island. Later they removed to Massachusetts, where the father, who was a weaver of woolen cloth on the old-fashioned hand-looms, found plenty of employment at his trade. In 1844 he removed from Massachusetts to Wisconsin, where he became one of the pioneer farmers of Racine County, and there passed the remainder of his life.
Seven brothers and sisters of the subject of this article grew to maturity. Grace, the eldest, who was born in Scotland, married Emerson Lombard and settled in Wisconsin. Robert P. was a merchant in New York City for years. Thomas P. was one of the Union colony who settled in Greeley, Colo., in 1870. Jane M. married Gustavus Goodrich, who was a captain in the Twenty-second Wisconsin Regiment during the Civil war and died soon after the cessation of hostilities from disease and exposure. William remained on the old homestead in Wisconsin. Margaret is the wife of James C. Bennett, of Kalamazoo, Mich. James lived in Wisconsin up to the time of the Civil war, when he enlisted in the Eighth Regiment of that state. His death resulted from the exposure and hardships incident to his army life.
John Thompson was born in Worcester, Mass., September 29, 1829, and in the Bay state the first fifteen years of his life were passed. Then, accompanying the rest of the family to the west, he grew to manhood on the Wisconsin farm. He finished his common-school education with a course in the University of Wisconsin. He learned the weaver's trade of his father, but never followed it to any extent. Instead, he cultivated the home farm until 1871, when he joined the Union colony that had settled in Greeley the previous year. He had secured a certificate of membership a year before, however, and upon his arrival in Greeley he took up a five-acre lot near the town and bought a pre-emption right to an eighty-acre tract of land on section 24, township 6, range 66. This is a portion of his present farm, which now includes one hundred and twenty acres of land purchased by him in the fall of 1879.
He built a comfortable house and made other substantial improvements, and engaged actively in the cultivation of his land and in stock-raising. He was one of the original stockholders of the Farmers' Mercantile Company and owns some stock in the Cache la Poudre Reservoir Company and in ditch No. 2, which provide irrigation for his farm. Politically he is a Republican.
In Wisconsin Mr. Thompson married, in 1857, Miss Mary Lombard, by whom he had four children. One child died and Mrs. Thompson departed this life in March, 1866. November 1, 1868, Mr. Thompson married Kate N. Near, daughter of Barnard H. and Eleanor (Tarpany) Near, natives of New York. Mrs. Thompson was born in the city of Utica, N. Y. The three children of Mr. Thompson's first marriage are: Herbert J., ex-county treasurer of Weld County; William O., a farmer near Lincoln, Neb.; and Mary R., wife of Max K. Gerry, who resides on our subject's farm and assists in its management.

Spouses
Misc. Notes
I cannot be certain this Gustavus is related to my Gustavus Goodrich, but the name is unusual enough and the timelines work. One question is whether Gustavus senior would have named a second son Gustavus prior to the death of the first one (the other Gustavus was born app. 1860).
In 1850, there is a Gustavus Goodrich aged 22 working as a laborer for a carpenter in Clinton, NY. That would mean he was born before Hannah Jane was born, but when Gustavus the elder was 25 or so. Could work.
In 1860 Gustavus Goodrich was living in Raymond, Racine County, Wisconsin. He was 35 and had real property worth $1200, but no occupation was listed. His place of Birth was given as New York. With him was wife Jane, age 36, from Rhode Island; son Philo, age 9, born in Wisconsin, and daughter Hettie, 4, born in Wisconsin. Also with them was Louisa Jewett, age 27, born in Vermont, listed as “teacher of Com. School.”23

Twenty-second Infantry. -- Cols., William L. Utley, Edward
Bloodgood; Lieut.-Col., Edward Bloodgood; Majs., Edward D.
Murray Charles W. Smith.
This regiment was organized at Camp Utley, Racine and was
mustered in Sept. 2, 1862. It left the state Sept. 16 for
Cincinnati to aid in defending the city against a threatened
attack.
On the 31st it was assigned to the 1st brigade, 1st division,
Army of Kentucky, and for a time performed guard duty at
Nicholasville. It was then sent to Danville, where it was
occupied in scouring the country in pursuit of the enemy until
Jan. 26, 1863, when it started for Franklin, Tenn.
On March 4 part of the regiment under Col. Utley joined a
large foraging expedition to Spring Hill and during the march
participated in two lively skirmishes. On March 25 about 300
men of different regiments under Lieut.-Col. Bloodgood, while
guarding the railroad at Brentwood, were surprised, captured
and sent to Richmond but were soon exchanged.
The regiment then moved to Nashville and in April to Lookout
Valley, near Chattanooga. It left Lookout Valley on May 3,
1864, to take part in Sherman's Atlanta campaign.
It had a conspicuous part in the battle of Resaca, this being
the regiment's first real battle. Its loss was 11 killed and
64 wounded. It participated in the actions about Dallas and
was engaged in three smart skirmishes during the siege of
Kennesaw Mountain. For its unflinching bravery in the battle
of Peachtree Creek, the regiment was highly praised by Gen.
Hooker.
It shared in the movements of the 20th corps during the siege
of Atlanta and encamped in that city Sept. 2. It remained on
garrison at Atlanta, occasionally engaging in foraging
expeditions, until Jan. 2, 1865, when it joined the general
movement north to Richmond, participating in the battles of
Averasboro and Bentonville.
It was in the grand review at Washington and was mustered out
June 12, 1865. The original strength of the regiment was
1,009. Gain by recruits 143; substitutes 130; draft, 223.

From a biography of George Andrew Day transcribed from A Standard History of Kansas and Kansans, written and compiled by William E. Connelley, Secretary of the Kansas State Historical Society, Topeka. [Revised ed.] Chicago: Lewis Publishing Co., 1919, c1918. 5 v. (xlviii, 2530 p., [155] leaves of plates): ill., maps (some fold.), ports.; 27 cm. :
At Burlington, Wisconsin, in 1862 he enlisted in Company H of the Twenty-Second Wisconsin Infantry under Captain Gustavus Goodrich and Colonel William L. Utley. This regiment was ordered to Kentucky, crossed the Ohio River at Cincinnati, went on to Lexington, then to Danville, and at Louisville took a steamer for Murfreesboro. Its first fighting was done at Spring Hill, Tennessee, where an overwhelming Confederate force captured the entire brigade. The prisoners were taken to Richmond and Mr. Day spent twenty-two days in the famous Libby prison until paroled on the first of April. He was sent to the parole camp at Benton Barracks in St. Louis, and was exchanged at Camp Jackson. With his regiment he re-entered service, going to Louisville, then to Franklin and on to Murfreesboro. At the latter point Mr. Day was stricken with the smallpox, was sent to hospital and never rejoined his regiment. He was in a hospital almost to the end of the war, being detailed as a nurse after his own recovery, then as a ward master and finally as hospital steward. He reached home after his army service on November 25, 1864.
