There are still about half a dozen Goulding families listed in the local Murwillumbah/Tweed area.

What's the protocol - should I ring and see if they are connected? Don't want to tread on any one's toes if someone else is following this gentleman and his family.

Welcome to rootschat Benjamin - you may be required to give a sample. (DNA sample that is  Wink)

Grin

I'm sure Tim or Sandra will be along to help you soon. there's a fair amount of info at the beginning of this thread - did you already have all that? How do you fit into the Goulding line?

Are you hoping to go back through the Goulding ancestry? If so it might be worthwhile starting a new thread on the Lincolnshire board. (You can add a link to this thread to give everyone a bit of background to the family). This thread is mainly focused on finding living relatives.

Do you have any photos of JJ Goulding?
