Exhibition 2006 - A Panel
Note: The
Goldfinch family has subsequently been traced by Dave Dixon (of
www.fadedgenes.co.uk) and William was descended from a branch who came
from Hoath, near Canterbury. His great-grandfather was William Lacey
Goldfinch, born 1808, at Hoath, and who by 1841 was living at Tower
Hamlets, Dover. The Lacey middle name comes from the marriage of John
Goldfinch to Margaret Lacey on 20th January 1785, at Holy Cross church,
Hoath. Dave additionally suspects that the Alkham and Hoath branches of
the Goldfinch family ultimately will trace back to Nicholas Goldfinch of
Elham, born around 1587.
Thank you, Dave,
for this information and for the extensive family tree you kindly sent.
