Mistigoose, Robert Goodwin's country wife, is not "Jenny"; Jenny was Robert's second wife and gave him two daughters Anne and Marguerite. Mistigoose had already given Robert the following daughters and only the one son, William Goodwin (b.6 Aug, 1788). The birth sequence for these first Goodwin children were as follows: Caroline Goodwin; the dizogotic twins, William and Mary Goodwin; Margaret "Peggy" Goodwin, and a fabricated erroneous "Nancy" (a nickname for Anne Goodwyn) for the girl twin named "Mary (Goodwin)" Corrigal, who was my great three grandmother who died 23 Sept 1823, at age 35, at the HBC Martin (sic) Falls, Albany river post, and she was buried at Martin Falls. Mary's beloved mother, Mistigoose, had drowned herself, in late 1796 or early 1797, and the twin Mary's own second daughter, Mary (Corrigal) Scollie's husband, Robert Scollie, erected a Scottish Cairn over Mistigoose's grave, about 40 mile down the Albany river where her Indian body became shored.The Mistigosse children were all surnamed "Goodwin", while Jenny's two girls were surnamed Goodwyn; however, all children were fathered by the HBC's Surgeon/Trader Robert Goodwin, my great four grandfather who was born 1761 at Yoxford, Suffolk, U.K He died in 1805 while on trhe Albany river alone.
