Have not used Rootschat since 2005, since the very knowledgeable Mike Fenn did most of the work for me on my wife’s family (Fenn), so please excuse any breaches of protocol.
Now going to start on mine. Gooding, Ipswich. My starting place is dad. Leonard James Gooding abt 1884, Ipswich. Later (?) married Julia Emma Wilding.
I shall of cause appreciate any information from Suffolk Census Lookup

FURTHER TO:
Having search futher on LDS and FreeBMD, it looks like my father was Chistened (and Married as) James Leonard G (probably George) Gooding, but was known as and listed in censuses as Leonard J.
