5 ~ 1928 - Jesse C. Goodrich

Jesse Carlton was one of Frederick C.'s youger sons. He had moved to Wisconsin in 1918, and in 1919 he married Elsie Goeres. A year later they moved back to Chatham for 12 years. I'm speculating they moved back to help his 65yo father with the farm.

On January 20th, 1928, Jesse Carlton & Elsie Goodrich bought the farm from Jesse's father's estate, a few months after Frederick C. died.

On July 9th, 1932 they sold the farm to his older sister, Lucy B. Lamoree, and moved back to Wisconsin.

The house burned at a date unknown to me. Might the loss of the house have precipitated this sale? Could be. jhc
