Census for Rock Bedwellty- 1851 to 1861 Golding

[welsh lady]

This 1841 census would fit with the above christening you found with parents Charles and Rebecca

H0107 Piece 750 Folio 26 Page 18
Ebbw Vale Iron works ,Bedwellty
Rebecca Golding,45,widow(widow is then crossed out)No
MartHa Golding,15.Y
Ruth Golding,13,Y
Jno Golding,11,

Rebecca not born in Monmouthshire and remember adults ages are rounded down in the 1841.
Next step would be to send for marriage cert of John and Gladice to confirm details

Also this Death fits in with Rebecca being a widow in 1841
Charles Goulding Qtr March 1840 Newport Mon

Welsh Lady

[welsh lady]

Heres Rebeccas death
Rebecca Golding
Qtr Sept 1852 Abergavenny
So she must be in the 1851 census and youd have her birthplace then however i cant find her maybe someone else will have more luck

This one turns up. It's a possibility, but needs further checking

Reference HO107/1944/93/25   Bitton, Gloucestershire

GOULDING, Rebecca  Visitor  Widow  F  51 (1800) House Keeper  Bitton

At the house of:
WILLIAMS, Thomas Ag Lab b Bitton

[welsh lady]

Hiya Both,That looks likely to be the right one age slighty out but the censuses often are,on the Pilot Search one of Charles and Rebeccas children Anns christenings has Rebeccas maiden name as Head and christening below is the right name and birthplace and matches birtplace in census.So looks promising

Rebecca Head
17th March 1793 Bitton Gloucester
Father-David Head
Mother-Mary

Hope all the info helps , you def need to send for John and Gladices marriage cert to confirm if Charles is his Father above looks likely but its easy to go down the wrong track
Good luck

Thank you so much for your help. I think that I might have stumbled upon yet a different one! I found a John Goulding and Gladys Goulding married in 1848 in Shirowy, Monmouthshire. John was born 9/Jul/1821 in Shirowy to John Goulding and Rosanna Bray. States Gladys birth cal(?) 1825 in Shirowy. John's father John Goulding was born 7/Sept/1798 in Westerleigh Gloucestershire and Rosanna Bray in 1795 in Worcestershire. Again- I am not familiar with these areas as I am from the States. Do you think that this could be feasible? Again- many thanks for all of your help. Susan
