S. G. Goodhue

The subject of this sketch was born in Deerfield, Rockingham county, New Hampshire, August 10, 1836. Here he received his primary education in the public schools, afterwards pursuing an academic course at Plainfield and Mendon village, in that state. He left the place of his birth and came to California in 1858, via the Isthmus, and arrived in San Francisco in September. He first settled in Marysville, where he remained about eighteen months, afterwards removing to Butte county, where he lived until he came to this county, in 1862. Mr. Goodhue has made San Mateo county his permanent home ever since, and he is now a resident of San Mateo, and conducts a large dairy on a ranch near the village. He is married, and Julia, Georgietta, Olive and Carrie E., are his children.
