Notes:
Michael Sidney Good (1889-1971)3 was listed in the 1920 and 1930 US Census as a farmer living in Falls Church.
He later became the proprietor of the Falls Church Dairy.1

He started the Falls Church Dairy about 19311.
In January of 1936, he moved his dairy to a new building he had constructed on Westmorland Street near 19th Road, 1 block south of Route 29.2
A few months later, he sold his dairy to the Hazel's Dairy.1
It seems that Good left the dairy business and went into the business of building private homes. 4
Hazel's Dairy retained the employees of the Falls Church Dairy.1
