Birth
Twin to PhineasBiography
Goshen CemeteryGOSHEN CEMETERY was located in Lincoln Township, northwest of Ackworth in the late 1840s. The early burials of the present-day Ackworth neighborhood were made at Goshen Cemetery.
South River Meeting, the Society of Friends at Ackworth, was the parent-church for the Goshen Meeting House. The first minister at Goshen was Rodema, wife of Elias Newlin. Eventually, the Goshen Quakers joined the meetings at Ackworth and the Goshen Meeting ceased to exist. The cemetery was abandoned. The land was deeded to the parent-church, South River Monthly.
Pleasant Bond and Sally Bond, for the consideration of Love and Esteem, conveyed to the Society of Friends, Samuel Owens, Benjamin Hinshaw, and Elias Newlin as Trustees of the South River Monthly and to their successors, two acres of land. This is recorded in Plat Book 1 page 84, and was dated May 11, 1860.

Biography
Middle River Cemetery HistoryMIDDLE RIVER CEMETERY is in the southeast quarter of the southeast quarter of Section 14 of Palmyra Township. It is located one and one-half miles west and two and one-quarter miles north of Palmyra, Iowa.
The first to purchase land in Palmyra Township was John D. Parmalee who bought in Section 12 on August 1, 1848.
Members of the Society of Friends began meeting around Middle River as early as 1849. Some of these early pioneers were Thomas Rees and family, Robert Rees and family, Solomon Wright and family, A. Johnson and family, Charles Hinshaw and family and Elias and Rodema Newlin. A log cabin building was erected by members of the neighborhood and it was used for the school and the church.
Robert Linksly and Benjamin Seebohm, two Society of Friends Ministers, were headed west in a two-horse carriage, going to a Salem Friends meeting in southeast Iowa. On February 1, 1851, they headed on west to Three Rivers, This was the western-most edge of the Society of Friends on the continent.
The Middle River Society of Friends was organized in 1851. Original members were Charles Hinshaw and wife, Benjamin SMith and wife, John Hits and wife, Elias and Rodema Newlin, Jacob Moon and wife, Solomon and Susanna Wright, Rith Stanton and Hannah Horsman. The land for the first meeting house came from the farm of Solomon Wright.
The Meeting house was built in 1853. A parsonage was built in 1906 and the organ was installed in 1907. A new church building was dedicated on October 15, 1911.
Solomon and Susannah Wright of Warren County, for the sum of $40.00, conveyed to Benjamin Hinshaw, Samuel Owens and Elias Newlin, Trustees of the Friends Church and their successors, land thirty-six rods by twenty rods containing four acres more or less. This is recorded in Deed Book P on page 278. One of the oldest legible stones in the Middle River Cemetery marks the grave of one of Wright's family.
