  Note	Ellery B. Crane, MA Genealogical Register,Worcester Co, vol 10: Levi Goodnow first settled in Shrewsbury, MA, and served in the French and Indian Wars. About 1770 to Guilford, VT. and there in 1775 and 1776, however, he appears in the MA Rolls as Sergeant in the company of Captain Ichabod Dexter and Colonel Ruggles Woodbridge and was at Cambridge June and July 1775 and was undoubtedly at the Battle of Bunker Hill. In 1777 and 1778 his name appears on the VT Rolls as Captain Levi Goodnow in command of a company of Rangers in the Regiment of Colonel Samuel Herrick. His last service was in Captain John Pratt's company, Col. Ebenezer Wallbridge's Battalion in the VT service. The State of VT Council on Safety appointed a committee on 22 Aug. 1778 to settle the account of Capt. Levi Goodnow's Rangers. Sept. 6, 1777 the Council directed Capt. William Fitch to deliver to Capt. Levi Goodnow, "two sides of leather out of Marshes Fatts". This puzzling statement only shows that Capt. Goodnow was there. He later settled in Derby, VT.
