What it says, against the tree
Each fact this record gives, set beside what the FamilySearch tree says: it agrees, it is new (the tree lacks it), it conflicts, or it is context.
| Person | Fact | Document says | Tree says | Assessment |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| John Oscar Goodrich | Birth | 1843 | 1843 New York, United States | agrees |
| John Oscar Goodrich | Death | 26 Apr 1900 Brooklyn, Kings County, New York, USA | 26 Apr 1900 Brooklyn, Kings, New York, United States | agrees |
| John Oscar Goodrich | Burial | Riverhead Cemetery Riverhead, Suffolk County, New York, USA | 28 Apr 1900 New York | agrees with his obituary ("The interment will be in Riverhead, L. I.", 1900-04-28) and names the cemetery the tree lacks (it has only "New York"; FS-111) |
| John Oscar Goodrich | Parents | Elisha B. Goodrich (1809–1891) and Eliza Van Velor Goodrich (1808–1883), linked; both in Riverhead Cemetery | Elisha Bates Goodrich and Eliza Van Velsor | agrees |
| John Oscar Goodrich | Marriage | To Emma W. Wright, in Brooklyn, 4 April 1874 (contributor's text) | 20 Oct 1875 | conflicts: the New York City marriage record gives 4 April 1875 (FS-111); the memorial's year is probably a slip |
