I am looking for any relatives of my gt. grandfather James McGoldrick born about 1827. Father's names John McGoldrick and mother's name Catherine Flinn. James Mcgoldrick moved to Govan Scotland and married Helen Fitzpatrick in Govan Scotland. They had two girls in Govan, Catherine and Helen. He then moved to Hebburn/Jarrow England. He had two more daughters Ann and my grandmother Rose Ann. Both of these girls were regeister in England using the last name Golden. (Seems this was the practice to change the name because of work) He James was a Ship's caulker.
On the 1881 census in England he is listed as James McGoldrick again. Though on the 1871 census in England he was Golden. To make matters even worse my grandmother though born in England moved to Dumbarton Scotland and used the last name Goldie. Rose Ann Goldie married Michael Murrary in 1896. So one can see my dilema. I am amazed that I have tracked all this info so far. I know that James McGoldrick was born in Ireland. If any of these names have any relationship to anyone please contact me. Thank You
