REFERENCE: 91 Va Cous
Colonel Francis Goode, No. 91 in Va Cousins, owned a fine estate in
Chesterfield Co., known as "Seven Oaks." The house was destroyed by fire
about the time of his death and the property was afterwards owned by
Walthall C. Goode, son of 211. His wife is buried on the estate.
In 1795, he went to Philadelphia to be treated for cancer, and died on
the vessel on the return voyage. The ship was blown out to sea when off
Norfolk and remained sixty days out of sight of land, and he was buried
at sea. He was accompanied at this time by his nephew, Francis Goode.
Miss M. A. L. Goode writes, -- "I have heard my father say that Madam
Goode (for no one called her "Mistress," was one of the sweetest
gentlewomen he ever met, and I know his impression was that she was very
aristocratic in her feelings. The habits of her household were those of
the English country gentry, and until the handsome residence was
destroyed by fire, everything was kept in elegant style. The surroundings
made a lasting impression on my then childish mind as I played through
the groves and gardens." p. 59 Va Cousins
