This page is dedicated to my my dad, Bob Goodemote, and my grandparents, Cecil Goodemote and Mary Linsler Goodemote of Batavia, New York. Their gentleness, goodness and quiet grace, lives on in all who knew them.

I am researching the GOODEMOTES and related families. I am the 4th great grandson of Johannes (John) GOEDEMOET (Goodemote). John, son of Johannes moved to the Ashford-Springville-West Valley, NY area from Columbia Co., NY in 1816. Johannes was the son of Baltus/Baltes/Balthasar GOEDEMOET of Kinderhook, NY, so we now know that all the Goodemotes from New York state in the med-1700s are related. This also includes families with the various spellings -- Goodemote, Goodamote, Goodremote, Goodermote and Goodamoot.

I have built upon the research of others who have researched the Goodemote family. I owe a great debt to Carrie Mills Dudley and Janet Abbey Engel, who published "The Goodemotes of Western NY." Thanks also goes to the Cattaraugus County GenWeb page, Bill Anspach, Don Gentner, Steve Goodermote, Cy Goodremote, Joan Thom, Candi Zizek, Marian Goodemote Lamka and Doris Goodemote Boyce. These are just some of the people who provided me with invaluable help and information.

There are more than 6,000 names in my data base, many from Cattaraugus and Erie (NY) Counties. I am interested in the KRUSE, MURPHY, HEMSTREET, and SHULTES families, all of whom settled in Western New York circa 1820. Many came from eastern New York, particularly Columbia County. I am also interested in the LINSLER family from New York state.

If you have information regarding the GOODEMOTES/GOEDEMOETS/GOODERMOTES/GOODREMOTES OR GOODAMOTES or are researching a related line, please contact me. This website contains only some of the information I have. Feel free to e-mail me to request information in my data base.

My research and my life has been enriched by meeting long lost cousins and people who have an interest in these families. Drop me an e-mail and introduce yourself; I'd love to hear from you. Help me develop and preserve the history of this family!

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost.
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

-J.R.R. Tolkien
