Hi Cecily Were these the same GOLDIEs that lived in York St East Gosford, near the bottom of White Street. One of the girls, Mary, was in my year at Gosford High. we lived not far away in Frederick St. My maiden name was ROGERS. What was yours? You are only a couple of years older than I am and I grew up in East Gosford. Interestingly my ancestor is also a John SMITH, butcher from East Gosford, but not your John SMITH. Have you looked at the Central Coast pre 1901 pioneer register. there are quite a few GOLDIES mentioned there? Judy Gifford researching ROGERS SMITH CAIN, all of East Gosford
