Hi. First time on RootsChat. Been reading Goldsworthy details with great interest. Thanks everyone for your great research.
I live in Adelaide , Australia and my Grandfather , on my mother's side, was Brice Allerdale Goldsworthy. James, who came out on the Alumbagh was definitely his father. They were old Moonta Mines people and strong Methodists. Brice and his wife, Rhoda, eventually came to live in Adelaide after the copper mining boom had subsided. I seem to recall Brice had a blacksmith background like his Father, James, who was engaged in a Blacksmiths business in 1871 as mentioned in posts by others .
BTW..re unusual James children's names...one child's First Name was Gething..and I noticed that Gething was also the Surname of some people who came out on the ship Alumbagh along with James.
