« on: Monday 03 February 14 10:07 GMT (UK)  »
Hello Ladyhawk
I do now have the birth and Marriage certificate for Kate Coulson
Birth certificate states 19th April 1866 -sub district of Woolwich Dockyard-Kent
Father Charles Coulson-Staff sergeant in the Military-Mother Priscilla Coulson-late Booker-
formerly Wright-living at 80, King Street, Woolwich.
The marriage certificate states that on November 12th 1892 in the parish of St Paul Southport Lancaster-Jane Kate Coulson 26 of 117, Shakespeare street-Father Charles Coulson (deceased) Staff Sergeant- to John Hannah Gold 24-Commercial Traveller of 54 princess street Father William Gold who was a commercial traveller.
The witnesses were George Robert Hilliard and a John Ratcliffe.  Obviously we are no further forward in finding out how Kate fitted into our family-but Thank you for your interest and help
Best wishes

Hello again
The family tree that I have has actually been written by a cousin of mine.  The name did look like
Glove.   Grandma had 7 sons 
It does get interesting-one of her sons was called Leslie Coulson Windmill (Coulson used as a christian name) He was a lamp boy on the Railway-and killed in an accident in 1919.
We also found on the 1911 census that Grandma had had a daughter who died in infancy, who we did not know anything about.  (She could have had a sister that no-one knew about too!!)
Very Interesting about John Hanna Gold being on Ellis Island.  He was a steward and Kate was a
stewardess-Mmmm.
I am begining to think I made a mistake when I eliminated Kate Coulson.
I will send for the marriage certificate of Jane Kate Coulson.
If that fails I will send for birth certificate for Catherine Frances.
Thanks again
Molly

Hi ladyhawk
Thank you for this.   The only reason I eliminated her was because I could not see how
she could have been born in woolwich in 1869-when Grandma was born in Alderney in 1871.
The family must have moved to Burton from the C.I between 1873 and 1877.  Herbert was born
in Alderney in 1873.  William was born in Walsall in 1877. 
I cannot trace any family at all in Kent.
It certainly fits that Kate Coulson was an assistant dressmaker, born in Woolwich
in 1869 and married a Mr J Gold.  She was known as Kate Gold on the Titanic.  I am afraid I have no idea what his given name was.  She could have course have been illegitimate.
Anyway I will send for the marriage certificate for Jane Kate Coulson and see if that tells us anything.
Annie.s mother's name was Maria E chamberlaine born1837 in Bedminster Glove? Her Father's name was Benjamin born in 1835 Hadley Town Sussex.  I gave a lot of this information out this afternoon but was unable to post it for some reason.  I will let you know when I receive the marriage certificate.
THANK YOU ALL

Could the Kate mentioned in the newspaper report have been her sister-in-law  ???



Ladyhawk
Yes this is the family. Annie is my Grandmother.  Catherine.s married name was Gold
so could not have been her sister in Law.
Thanks for replying. I am overwelmed.

What about the 14 year old visitor Kate COULSON born Woolwich in the 1881 census with your CORK family at Burton in Staffordshire?

The nearest I could see is Jane Kate COULSON dau of Charles and Priscilla of 2 Cambridge Cottages (Staff Sergeant in the Royal Artillery) baptised Woolwich 3 Jun 1866 (born 19 April).

If that isn't any use, what date is this newspaper and what is the article about? 

Casalguidi :)

First of all Thank you to everyone I really  am grateful to you all.
sorry for delay.
Casalguidi  I have eliminated Kate Coulson. I actually sent for her birth certificate.  Her father was Charles Coulson Mother was Priscilla Coulson of 80 king Street Woolwich.Charles was a staff sergeant in the military.
Kate was born on 19th April 1866. in King Street Woolwich
The newspaper was the Burton Mail Remembers section 16th April 2012.  A Mrs Catherine Gold was a stewardess on HMS Titanic-sister of Mrs Joseph Windmill of Calais Road Horninglow(My grandmother) M
Catherine did survive her ordeal. She was also a dressmaker.
Thank you for replying
