----Source: "Biographical History of
Clark Jackson Counties, WI," Lewis pub. co., 1891, pg. 216:
ARCHIE L. GOODWIN, the noted hunter of Clark
County, residing on section 32, Hixon Township, was born near
Dubuque, Iowa, February 27, 1859, the son of David R. Goodwin, a
native of Illinois. The latter, now of Washburn County, Wisconsin,
was a pioneer of Iowa and also of Wisconsin, having removed to the
latter State in 1858, settling in Clark County, and remained until
the fall of 1870, when he came to this county and settled two miles
east of Thorp, Withee Township, then Hixton, but removed to
Washburn County in 1887.
The subject of this sketch settled on his present farm of eighty
acres in October, 1878, and has since cleared thirty acres of this
tract. He is engaged in hunting every fall, and works in the woods
in the winters. He has killed not less than twenty deer each fall
for the past twelve years, and in one fall killed forty-nine, and
has also killed about fifty or more bear since he settled on his
present place. Mr. Goodwin was married May 17, 1875, to Clara
Clark, a daughter of Israel Clark, deceased. Of their eight
children, six are now living: Eva, Ida, William, Maud, Frank and
George.
