• Notes

  2nd marriage to Emily at Charters Towers. No known divorce. A few discrepancie his age,where born, maybe to hide first marriage to Johanna.(age 28) Note Birth registered as James - no 2nd Christian name. DOB Courthouse 4/93. Father death cert 1909 states 2 males deceased (assumes this James & Alfred) as Elizabeth S (45) and William F (43) Living. Why was James presumed dead? Note 2nd Marriage f = Richard Golden, m = Elizabeth Wilson. Death 1944 have copy of cert. Note still states born in Victoria. There must be some query with this but it does fit with names of parents. So have added children from this marriage. However also the second c name was Ernest so this is another discrepany. All done to confuse and cover his tracks. He moved to Queensland in the early 1900's and lived there until he died in 1944. His death certificate lists his second name as 'Ernest' but Edward was on his birth certificate. There is no record found so far, of any divorce from Johanna, his first wife. This may explain why the family classed him as dead when his father died. Following notes provided by Mrs Bev Golden (via Linda O'Sullovan) widow of Eric the youngest child of James and Emily. Emily's mother, apparently, lived in Charters Towers, James Golden worked prior to 1919 at least, at the Mt Surprise copper mine, Selwyn, Q. Later, James and Emily moved to Rollingstone, north of Townsvlle, where James worked as a blacksmith. They then moved to Ingham where the family lived for many years. Harold Golden(grandson of James) met Emily Maud Fellowes in 1953 when he visited the family home in Hardy St., Ingham. She told him that they left Coffs Harbour by boat for Townsville then travelled overland to Charters Towers, that they married at Queenton and travel on to Cloncurry and Selwyn where James worked on a copper smelter. After returning to Ingham James worked for the Victoria Sugar Mill. Later his eyesight deteriorated. He was buried in the OldIngham Cemetery at Tobanna.
