http://www.one-barton-family.us/genealogy/viva/d2027.html offers: "ROBERT GOODALE and his family embarked for New England on the ship "Elizabeth" of Ipswich (William Andrews, master) in April, 1634. In the records of the port it is stated that he was then thirty years of age. His wife Catherine was twenty-eight, and of their three little children Mary was four, Abraham was two, and a baby, Isaac, was only six months old.

"Where the 'Elizabeth' landed her passengers does not appear, but the first record of the Goodales in America is at Salem, where they settled at Great Cove in the North Fields. The spring, so often mentioned in the early records, in what is now called Liberty Hill Park, was on Robert Goodale's farm and was known for the first half-century of Salem's history as Goodale's spring. It is not recorded how he acquired this first farm. In 1636 and 1638 he received grants of twenty acres each in that portion of the town which became known as Salem Village, and he gradually acquired by purchase similar grants made to other early settlers, until he was the owner of a tract of land at Bald hill comprising four hundred and eighty acres, which was confirmed to him by a town grant on '7th: 11th mo. 1651.' He probably moved to this new property at about that time, and, as opportunity offered, disposed of his Great Cove farm, deeding the house and a portion of the land to his son-in-law, John Smith, in 1658. Another lot was conveyed to Nicholas Manning in 1667, and a third conveyance was probably made to John Orne, who owned a part of the property, hitherto unconveyed, in 1684.

"Goodale seems to have devoted his life to the development of his large grant for the benefit of his sons and daughters, to whom, as they married, he gave a generous acreage as a wedding gift, thus creating a family settlement about his own homestead. Although his clear firm handwriting would seem to indicate a good education, he took no part in local or broader governmental affairs; and his name seldom appears in the records in any active capacity except as plaintiff or defendant in suits based on the ownership of his land or stock.

"After the death of his wife Catherine, Robert Goodale married Margaret Lazenby of Exeter, with whom he entered into an agreement on August 30, 1669, whereby he promised to settle on her twelve acres of land, 'a new dwelling house which I doe intend God willing shortly to build' and 'two cowes & a horse or mare fitt for her to ride on.' After her death this property was to go to his son Jacob.

"Robert Goodale died between October 12, 1682, and June 27, 1683, the respective dates of the signing and proving of his will....

"According to 'A Genealogy of the Descendants of Robert Goodale/Goodell of Salem, MA,' George E. Williams, 1984, Robert Goodale was born at Dennington, Suffolk Co., England and baptized there 16 Aug. 1601. He was son of Robert and Joan (Artys) Goodell the fourth of five children. According to an Internet source, Robert was born, to the same parents, 29 June 1594 in Downhah, Norfolk Co., England (Goodale @ http://www.members.aol.com.janau/goodale/. He married in England and had 3 children prior to his immigration with wife "Katherin" and 3 children. They arrived in New England on the ship "Elizabeth" which sailed from Ipswich 30 April, 1634 (NEHGS "Register," Vol. 14, pg. 329). Robert was 30 years of age, his wife 28, daughter Mary 4, Abraham, 2 and Isaac aged half a year. (Robert's age stated at immigration (30) differs from that indicated in baptismal records, although is more consistent with the Internet source date of birth.)

"The Goodale Family text indicates that the family was of French Huguenot extraction; that Robert's grandparents had fled France to England. Spelling variants include Goodall, Godell and Goodell.

"Robert settled at Salem Village first at a place called Great Cove in the North Fields. A spring, known for years as Goodale's Spring, was located on this property. In 1636 and 1638 Robert received grants of land of 20 acres each in what became known as Salem Village and he gradually acquired other pieces of land through purchase until he owned, by 1651, a tract at Bald Hill of 480 acres, confirmed to him by the town on 7 Nov. 1651. He disposed of the Great Cove property at this time, deeding the house and a portion to son-in-law John Smith. Robert's wife died in 1645 and he remarried 2 years later, to a Margaret Lazenby of Exeter, NH. His name appears seldom in Salem records, other than as a plaintiff or defendant in suits involving his land or stock.
"In his aged years, he apparently resided with youngest daughter Elizabeth and her husband, John Smith, as indicated in his will of 12 Oct. 1682. In that will he mentions his wife, daughter Elizabeth Bennett, grandchild John Smith. He had apparently provided for his other children at their marriages. His wife's name, Margaret, is mentioned by the appraisers of the inventory who valued the estate at 79 pounds, 16 on 10 March 1683. The will was probated 27 June 1683.

"Research note: see Waters' "Gleanings," Vol 2, pg. 1408. He was married to Catherine Kilham in 1629."
