Nancy (Weered),
I hit a breakthrough in locating some of Ellen Frame-Gold-Ferguson family, after they arrived in the United Status on March 15, 1888.

Ellen and her children appear to have settled in the Coal Glen, Pennsylvania area.  Ellen's daugther Margaret married William Kane.  They are both buried in the Beechtree Cemetery in Jefferson County.  I have photos of their tombstones. 
Margaret:  Feb 13, 1875 - July 5, 1928

I am unable to locate anything on Ellen, but one strange yet exciting find was Margaret's Brother John R Gold (Jan 25, 1866 - 7/25/1892) buried here and his tombstone says, Son of James and Ellen Gold.  John did not accompany this mother to the states on March 15, 1888.  I have a ship manifest that proves he came over for a short visit twice.  Apparently during his second visit his pasted away and they buried him in the cemetery where Margaret and her husband are buried.   This find brought tears to my eyes.

Let me know if you find anything further on this family

Regards
Larry

Let's just be clear....I was searching for the parents of George Gold.  I discovered that George Gold's mother is Ellen F Ferguson, (aka....Helen Frame).  Helen/Ellen married a James Gold and had 5-children with James.  James died (1872), young leaving her with 5-young children.  Helen/Ellen remarried in Jun/1874 to Daniel Ferguson. Daniel Ferguson deserted Helen/Ellen in Sep/1874 leaving her with a 6th child by the name of Maggie Ferguson.  Helen/Ellen gave birth to her 7th child, George Stoddart Frame/Ferguson in April 20, 1879.  George's Birth Statutory indicated by Helen/Ellen that Daniel Ferguson was not his father because she had not personal contact with himj since Sep/1874 when he deserted her. 

Ellen Ferguson took all 7-children and arrived in New York on March 15, 1888.  George, the youngest of the 7-children was 8-years old.  Her other children are as follows:
1.  Daniel Gold  (born 1861)
2.  Isabella Gold (born 1864)
3.  John Gold (born 1866)
4.  Helen Gold (born 1868)
5.  James Gold (born 1870)
6.  Maggie Ferguson (born 1875)
7.  George Stoddart Frame/Ferguson Gold

I am attempting to track down the first 5-children to see if any of their children/grand children are still alive and living in the Pennsyvania area.  Since Helen/Ellen Gold/Ferguson died in Coal Glen, Pennsyvania it leads me to believe that her children all must have settled in and around that area of Pennsyvania.  George Gold, (my great grand father), is buried in Patton, Pennsylvania. 

If I find out anything on Isabella, I will definately post here for you.  You are welcome to visit my family tree on Ancestry.com listed as the Gold/McClintock Family Tree.

Are you a decendant of Isabella, (daugher of Helen/Ellen F Gold/Ferguson?

Thank you Kilsyth....I also responded

It is a known fact that may people changed or shortened their names when going to America.  I guess it is possible that Ferguson and Stoddart changed their names to Gold?

Kylsyth; would you be willing to email me the certificates that you have?
