Hi Bertie,
Sorry for the delay in getting back. Your information about Lucy Stay nee Goulden confirms that the following is indeed ours -
Kew, Public Records Office (PROB6/20416) Admons or Letter of Administration, that reads as follows: 16 July 1828 David Goulding. £50 On the sixteenth day. Admon of the Goods, Chattels and Credits of David Goulding late of Poole in the County of Dorset, Bachelor, deceased was granted to Lucy Stay (wife of Stephen Stay) the natural and lawful Sister and next of kin of the said Deceased having been first sworn by Crown duly to administer.
The fact that David Goulden lived in Poole ties in very nicely with the Newfoundland connection too.
We don't have the James who died young s/o James and Ann White. Will have to look further.
Otherwise, as you say, we are broadly in agreement.
We have recently found an Albert Goulding apprenticed to a Barking shipowner in the 1858. And a Robert Goulding indentured into the Merchant Navy in 1855. If they are 'ours' and we think there is a good possibility, it would fit in well with James dying in 1856.
Where exactly does this family fit in with yours?
Best wishes
Peter
