I am looking for any records about my 2 times Great Grandfather David Goulding. David's wife was Bridget (maiden name unknown) and she was born abt 1824 and seems to have died after him in 1894.
The only record I have been able to find of David Goulding is on his son, Michael Goulding's Marriage Certificate 28th August 1882 at The Catholic Church of St Michael, Limerick. Michael's marriage certificate states his father was David Goulding occupation farmer.
Michael was born abt 1859 in Cahirciveen Resident, Kerry, Ireland and died 22nd Oct 1924 in Hertfordshire, England
Michael married Ellen O’Neill from Abbeyfeale, Limerick, born abt 1858 in Abbeyfeale, Limerick, Ireland - died 5 Nov 1938 in Surrey England. They had 6 children (Michael, Patrick (my grandfather), William, Margaret, Eily and Teresa). Ellen's fathers name was Michael O'Neill and he was a weaver.
Michael Goulding was from Fermoy Co. Cork at the time of his marriage and worked for Inland Revenue.
I do know a bit about Michael Goulding's adult life (my Great Grandfather) however have not been able to progress back any further. I do not have Michael's baptism information.
I have searched on ancestry.com.au and familysearch.org
Regards
Kathleen Kingston nee Goulding
