Research Notes

• A search of the Cornwall OPC for a baptism of William Goldsworthy 1842 +/- 2 gave 11 possible results including 3 with second name of Henry. Obtaining a copy of the marriage between William and Rachel may help to determine to right William.
• Wife Rachel's profile indicates she remarried in 1887 in Australia after his death, Date of Death and place needs to be researched.
