I haven't had much luck with tracking information on Carl Goodman and Jane Colegrove.. Both families ended up in Knox Co., Indiana toward the midle of the 19th century. They had a son, John L., born in 1854. John was living with his Colegrove grandparents in 1860. The Colegrove Family in America only mentions that Carl and Jane wre married.
Yesterday a breakthrough on Family Search! Indiana Marriages 1811-1929: 31 July 1851, Knox Co., IN - Jane Colegrove married CARROLL Goodman. Carroll is close to Carl. This should be the correct couple. Place, time frame and surnames are a match.
My guess is that Jane either died during childbirth or before the 1860 enumeration. Carl either died before 1860 or remarried and left John with his grandparents. I need to dig deeper now that I have more info!
