I am after any info on the above, Charles Goldsmith was born c 1801 and died c 1849 Isle of Thanet, he married Maria Freeman b c 1807 and died c 1855 Isle of Thanet. They had at least 11 children, Robert, William,Richard, Maria,Elizabeth, James, Caroline, Mary,Sarah & Walter. Does anyone know where Charles & his wife Maria were married or where they were born. Anything would be very helpful.Thanks Deb ;D
-
according to the 1851 census maria was born in ramsgate
if you want the full 1851 census entry i will post it here
-
and according to the 1841 charles was born in the county of kent
again if you want the census i will post it here
-
Thank you that would be very very helpful. :)

with regard to the richard goldsmith
i think this one might have been the son of richard and susanna goldsmith
in 1841 this family are in preston by wingham. same area as your charles and maria were in in 1841
maybe the parent richard is the brother of your charles born c 1800

interestingly this is the same address that the richard goldsmith was living at in 1881
maybe SKS could voice an opinion on this census entry.
having looked at the ages of this william and elizabeth maybe this is not the right family
-
have not found a definite sighting of william or elizabeth after 1881
afraid i am stumped with william for now
-
in 1841 this family are in preston by wingham. same area as your charles and maria were in in 1841
I would double check this ................. does the top of the page(s) say Ramsgate?

next up ellen.l.goldsmith daughter of william/elizabeth born c. 1877
this is the only birth i can find that might fit.
name; eleanor louisa goldsmith
y.o.r. 1877
qtr;jan/feb/mar
dist; thanet
vol; 2a
page; 909
-
the nexxt definite sighting is a marriage
name; ellen louisa goldsmith
y.o.r. 1898
qtr; jul/aug/sept
dist; thanet
vol; 2a
page; 1823
i think the husband is edward henry danton
but no definite proof
there is a helen danton with husband edward danton on the 1901 census
but although she states born in ramsgate she gives age as 27 (should be 24 to be sure this is your ellen goldsmith)
maybe if i can find her death it will give birth date closer to 1877)
-
she dies in 1947 aged 74 so again birthdate is 1873ish
so no proof this is your ellen
the only thing is on the 1901 census the helen danton states born in ramsgate in 1873
and if the marriage posted is correct then i can find no birth of an helen/eleanor/ellen goldsmith in thanet in between 1871-1881 apart from your eleanor louise born 1877
the only way you would know for sure if the marriage is yours would be to get the marr cert
or get someone to look up the actual marriage

that just leaves alfred goldsmith born c 1873
his middle name was john and his birth was actually regd in apr/may/jun 1872 in thanet
you already have him with his parents william/elizabeth in 1881
there is only 1 alfred goldsmith birth regd in thanet between 1867-1877
this is the only one i can see in 1891 that might be him the only problem with this entry is that there is a george goldsmith and mary goldsmith in the same household

Thank you very much for all your help. Deb

I was just wondering if you found anything of Walter Joseph Goldsmith b 1849 and Sarah Ellen Goldsmith both are children of Charles & Maria Goldsmith :)
-
cannot find walter after 1861 on any records in england all i could find was his birth reg in 1849 and the census records in 1851 with parents and 1861 with his brother
there is a joseph goldsmith on the 1881 census states born in ramsgate 1848
there are only 2 josephs's born in thanet reg dist between 1843-1853
one is walter joseph goldsmith born 1849 and the other is joseph goldsmith born 1843
maybe this 1881 census entry is walter using joseph as his first name
i have had a look for a joseph goldsmith born ramsgate c1848 on censuses 1851,1861
and there does not appear to be one
so there is a strong possibility that the joseph goldsmith on the 1881 might be your walter.
if you want me to try and follow this person(in the hope some later censuses might give some clues to whether this is your man) i will
-
with regard to sarah
the only census i can find her on is 1851
between 1851-1861 there are 3 deaths in thanet reg dist of a sarah goldsmith
she could have been one of those
on each of these deaths the name is down as just sarah goldsmith
because it is so early it does not give a est birth year
-
Would you be able to see if Walter is on any censuses after 1881 please. We know he was in Australia for awhile in the 1860's but disappears maybe he did go back to England.
