Albert Lewis GODDEN and family, Sydney, NSW
« on: Tuesday 08 January 13 07:03 GMT (UK) »
I'm hoping to find more details about Albert Lewis GODDEN (born 1886, Ulcombe, Kent, England, died 3 Dec 1947, Sydney, NSW, Australia)'s family.  He had (at least) two sons:

Albert Louis GODDEN (born 1910, Windsor, Bershire, England) who served in the RAAF from 03 Sep 1935 to 23 Jan 1965.
Norman Alexander GODDEN (born 1913, Kent, England,  married Duloie Edna DEACON in 1953)

This (old) thread relates: http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,565708.0.html
CRUST - Kent (Kingsnorth, Mersham)
BEATON - Isle of Mull
GODDEN - Ruckinge, Kent
