Unknown Goldner, Elmer G. E. Goldner, former resident of Shawnee, lately of Amery Wis., passed away on March 3, 1934 in People’s Hospital at Akron, Ohio. Funeral services were held at Bellows Chapel with burial in Akron. Death, which came as a shock to his family and friends was due to the complications resulting from Thrombosis or stroke. Mr. Goldner was born at North Jackson, Ohio, on Dec. 11, 1866. In his passing his wife and family have suffered the loss of a devoted husband and father. He was a member of the United Brethren Church. Surviving are the widow, Mrs. Maude Goldner, one daughter, Mrs. Susie McGovern of Akron, one son Charles Goldner and one grand daughter, Phylis Goldner of Minneapolis, Minn, also three sisters, Mrs. Jospeh Yeager, Mrs. Harriet Kistler of Akron and Mrs. Laura Snyder of North Jackson. A son and daughter proceeded him in death. Mr. Goldner was married to Miss Maude Ferguson, one of our hometown girls, 34 years ago and while they traveled much during the passing years, Shawnee remained dear in memory, and to them was considered home. Prominent for many years in the clay manufacturing industry, Mr. Goldner came to Shawnee in the employ of the O.M. & M Company [Ohio Mining and Manufacturing] in the first year of local brick making. His experience in the clay industry took him into many states, adding to his credits a long and honorable record of efficient and capable service. For the past several years he had been employed as Superintendent of the Canton Brick & Fireproofing Company’s plant at Newcomerstown, Ohio. When the plant suspended operations, Mr. and Mrs. Goldner established their home in Amery, Wis., where they had a cottage near a beautiful lake enjoying boating and fishing and a well earned vacation. Early in December Mr. and Mrs. Goldner were called to Columbus on account of the sickness of Mrs. Goldner’s mother and stepfather, both of whom passed away at Christmas time. During their stay in Columbus, Mr. Goldner contracted supposed ear trouble, which continued to grow more serious, finally resulting in death. Many in Shawnee remember Mr. Goldner and are pained to learn of his passing and extend sympathy to the bereaved family in their loss. Source: The People's Advocate, March 30, 1934

Goodlive, John Obituary of John Goodlive--The deceased, John Goodlive was born 25th, A.D. 1833, and died April 9th, A.D. 1898, at the age of 64 years, 5 months and 14 days. He was consecrated to God in his infancy, by holy baptism and renewed his baptismal vow by confirmation under the pastorate of Rev. Weirner in the month of May A.D. 1851. Thus becoming an active member and an earnest worker in the work for God and the Evangelical Lutheran church for 46 years. He united by marriage with Miss Rebecca Sherod, April 24th 1856, which union was blessed with 3 sons, one of whom preceded the father in infancy. He leaves a grief stricken wife, two sons, four brothers and two sisters, besides a host of relatives and friends to mourn. Brother Goodlive was a man of an exemplary character, a kind husband to an invalid wife, and law-abiding citizen, but above all stands his love to God and his zeal for the church. He had been one of God's noblest works, and honest and upright man. His vacant chair in his church and in his home, as wall as in society and in the community can hardly be filled. He is not dead, he has only gone to rest from his labor, yet his kind words, acts and deeds will live forever. As we stand at his narrow house today and say goodby! we pray that our death may be like the death of the righteous and our last end be like his. His remains were laid to rest in the cemetery joining the St. John's Evangelical Lutheran church, Tuesday April 12th A.D. 1898, Rev. W. E. Harsh officiating. Friend after friend departs; Who hath not lost a friend? There is no union her of hearts, That findeth not an end; Were this frail world our only rest Living or dying none were blest. But thanks to God There is a world above, Where parting is unknown; A whole eternity of joy, Formed for the good alone; And faith beholds the dying here Translated to that happier sphere.

Goodlive, Philander Jackson Obituary of Philander Jackson Goodlive--Philander Jackson Goodlive, son of John and Rebecca Goodlive, was born in Mondaycreek township, Perry county, Ohio, May 27, 1857. He was dedicated to God in the sacrament of baptism in his infancy, by the Rev. George Young, then pastor of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran church. At the age of 17 years, on the 4th day of April, 1874, he renewed his baptismal vows and was confirmed by Rev. George Young, his pastor, and became a full member of the church to which he remained a faithful member until his transfer to the church triumphant above. On the 13th day of April, 1880, he was united in marriage with Miss Clara M. Numemaker, by Rev. W. A. Weisman; to their union were born four daughters and two sons, one daughter and one son preceding their father to eternity. Brother Goodlive received a common school education, but by his energy and labor received a teacher's certificate and taught school for a few terms. In 1876, he went to Junction City, Ohio, to learn telegraphy and by strict devotion to the art he became a expert in that science. From that time on until within two years of his death, he filled various places of great responsibility and trust on various railroads, but was at last compelled to retire on account of failing health. On the 2nd day of this month, he came from his home in Junction City, to visit J. H. Goodlive and also to see his aged mother, who had been in feeble health, previous to his visit when he was stricken down typhoid fever, which proved fatal and on last Sunday morning, August 15, 1909, at about four o'clock at the home of his brother near Maxville, his immortal spirit left its house of clay and went home to God, at the age of 52 years, two months and 18 days, leaving to mourn a devoted wife and four children. Mr. Winfred Goodlive of Palo Alto, Cal., Mrs. Stell Stoneburner of Zanesvill, Ohio, Mrs. Grace Dugan of Sidney, Neb., and Miss Lena of the home, an aged mother and one brother, besides a large number of other relatives and friends. We will not ask, "why is it thus," for we know that our brother fought a good fight; he finished his course, he kept the faith and now there is laid up for him a crown of righteousness. His life was serene; his end was peace. The sorrow caused by the death of brother Goodlive is not confined to the limit of his family circle; a whole community mourns and extends the hand of deepest sympathy with the prayer that God may comfort the bereaved. His funeral was at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran church, Rev. W. E. Arnhold of Junction City, Ohio, officiating.

Goodlive, Rebecca Sherod Obituary of Rebecca Sherod Goodlive. There is a reaper whose name is Death, And with his sickle keen, He reaps the bearded grain at a breath, And the flowers that grow between. Rebecca Goodline, daughter of Kinsey and Lydia Sherod, was born in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, October 9, 1839. She was confirmed at the St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, by the Rev. George Young and remained true to her vows as a faithful member to said church until her transfer to the church triumphant, above. On the 24th day of April, 1856 she was united in marriage with John Goodlive by the Rev. Daniel Ricketts to which union were born three sons. The husband and two sons preceded her to the silent grave. One son, one brother, one sister, six grandchildren, fourteen great grandchildren and many distant relatives and friends survive her and mourn her departure. Mother Goodlive spent the greater part of her life in Perry county. She was of a kind disposition, and affectionate wife and mother and a good neighbor, always ready to lend a helping hand to the needy. For many years she had not enjoyed the best of health and her system could not withstand the rigors of her last illness, pneumonia, which was of short duration and on the morning of January 15, 1915, at 20 minutes until nine at the home of her son, Jas. H. Goodlive near Maxville, her soul passed forth from the tenement of clay to her Maker who gave it, at the age of 75 years two months and 26 days. She has answered the last call and her immortal spirit has taken its departure from the mortal body which we today consign to the earth whence it came to await the coming of our Lord. May we all seek comfort from Him who has promised to be an ever present help in time of need and who has said "blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted." Death is a faithful reaper and gathers the sheaves one by one. Call not back the dear departed, Anchored safe where storms are o'er, On the borderland we left them, Soon to meet and part no more, When we leave this world of change, When we leave this world of care, We shall find our missing loved ones, In our Father's mansion fair. The funeral was conducted at St. John's Lutheran church on January 7, 1915, by Rev. George C. Wagner. Her remains were laid to rest by the side of her husband in the St. John's cemetery to await the resurrection morn. (Obituary published probably in a Perry County newspaper soon after the Jan. 5, 1915 death of Rebecca Sherod Goodlive. Original in possession of Martin Weaver, Springfield, VA.)
