J. MARTIN GOOD, a wealthy and respected farmer of Bart township, Lancaster county, was born at his present home in that township, May 6, 1849, and is a son of Samuel and Eliza (Hollis) Good.

In 1830 he married Eliza Hollis, and lived for a year in Bart Valley. In 1832 he bought the farm on which his son is now established near Bartville, in the township of Bart; this he cleared with the assistance of his son, made extensive improvements, and erected the buildings which are now standing on the place. In 1880 he removed to Christiana, where he lived retired, to the time of his death in 1889. His wife died at the farm home in 1863. They were members of the Presbyterian Church in Octoraro. Politically he was a Democrat, and held a number of local offices at different times in his active and useful life. He was one of the first free school trustees of Bart township. To him and his excellent wife came the following family:

He has long been a judge of the elections, and was actively associated with the building of the Central high school of Bart township. He and his wife are members of Middle Octoraro Presbyterian Church. He is an industrious and hard working man, an upright citizen, and a kind neighbor. His neighbors speak warmly of his many good qualities and sympathetic spirit, and he enjoys the hearty and unstinted respect of the community in which his life is passing.
