"Dr. Charles Ellsworth Goodell, a direct descendant of Robert Goodell, was born in Springfield, town of Concord, Erie county, N. Y., Nov. 16, 1886, a son of John William and Elizabeth Jane (Ellsworth) Goodell. John W. Goodell, with his family, resided in Buffalo, N.Y., from 1888 until 1903, where he engaged in business. In the fall of 1903 he moved with his family to Springville, to the old homestead farm that has been in the family since 1830. Here he engages in general farming, but specializes in poultry and live stock. His sister, Mildred Mary, is a teacher of Domestic Science in the public schools of Jamestown.
"Dr. Charles E. Goodell received his early education in the public schools of Buffalo. N. Y., subsequently entering the Masten Park High School, from which he was graduated with the class of 1903. For three years following he devoted his time to working on his father's farm, but he had made up his mind to adopt the profession of medicine. Accordingly, in 1906, he entered the University of Buffalo, and was graduated with the degree of M. D. in 1910. For a year and a half afterwards he filled the position of intern at the Buffalo General Hospital. On July 1, 1910, he passed the Board of Medical Examiners at Buffalo, N. Y., and on Feb. 28, 1912, he came to Jamestown and opened an office at No. 105 Allen street, where he began a general practice. He met with success, and on Feb. 1, 1914, he built a commodious home and office at No. 63 Allen street, and here he has continued his practice ever since. In 1918 he received appointment as a member of the advisory committee of the Jones Hospital, in which capacity he continues to serve. Dr. Goodell has not confined himself to general practice, but is a specialist, not only of the digestive organs, but he is a bacteriologist, being an instructor in the Jones and W. C. A. hospitals. Dr. Goodell is classed among the expert surgeons of Western New York. In 1917, he was elected chairman of the Jamestown Board of Health.
"In politics. Dr. Goodell is a Republican, but has never cared to hold office. He is a member of the Masonic order, affiliating with Concord Lodge, No.; 351, of Springville, Western Sun Chapter, Jamestown; Commandery, and Ismalia Temple, Order of the Mystic Shrine. Dr. Goodell has attained to both the York and Scottish Rite degrees in Ancient Free and Accepted Masonry. He is a life member of Eagle Temple, a member of the Jamestown, Jamestown Rotary, Chadakoin and Sportsmen's clubs. He is also a member of the Board of Commerce, Jamestown Medical Society, Chautauqua County Medical Society, New York State Medical Society, American Medical Association, and American College of Surgeons.
"Dr. Goodell is a man whose character embodies that mysterious magnetic charm, which, although intangible as the spirit of life itself, yet manifests itself, with dynamic force, in all human relation, to differentiate its possessor from the commonplace. As a specialist, he is noted for his aptitude in grappling with details of medical science, especially those of germ life and the digestive organs, and for his accurate and keen perceptions and diagnosis of diseases. His position as a citizen and in professional, fraternal and social relations is a most enviable one, personal worth and acquired ability having gained for him well merited honor and esteem in Chautauqua county and Western New York.
"At Springville, N. Y., Dec. 27, 1911, Dr. Goodell was united in marriage with Francesca Bartlett, a daughter of James and Evalena (Kennedy) Bartlett. To this union the following children have been born: Francesca Elizabeth, born Nov. 29, 1912; James P., born May 13, 1914; George William, born Sept. 3, 1915; and June Evelena, born June 2, 1917."
