My name is Les Golding and I am researching my Family History.

My Great Grandfather Frederick Golding was born and married in the village of Ashen, Essex and his wife Elizabeth (nee) Chapman was from the village of Ovington. They moved to Concett, County Durham in the late 19th Century and then settled in Sunderland, where my family still live today.

I would very much like to make contact with any relatives still living in the village of Ashen where descendents can be traced to Arthur Golding (1536-1606) who died May 13th 1606 as noted in the Parish Register of Belchamp St Paul.
