Goldens from Mayo- James Golden to PA
I am looking for the Goldens who were from County Mayo.My great grandfather was James Golden, who was born abt. January of 1858 or so, in Ireland. He went to the US in 1881 and lived in what was then Pleasant Valley, PA (now known as Avoca, PA). He married Elizabeth "Lizzie" Langan in January of 1891. They had 10 children: Catherine (m. Collier), Sarah (died at abt.2), Thomas, Mary, Ann (never married), Elizabeth (m. Bednash), Agnes (m. Dieckhoff), Emily (never married), Helen (m. Klink) and James (m. Lottie Fela).
James Died in May of 1928.
According to another researcher, there may be a connection between my James and the Goldens in County Mayo. James may have been the son of Patrick Golden, from Rath Lacken, County Mayo.Patrick was married to an Ann Scanlon; they had 4 children: Bessie, Sally, Thomas & James. Patrick had a brother named Anthony.
If anyone has any any knowledge about this family of Goldens, I'd love to hear about them.
Cheers
Robyn
