Notes for JOHN GAULDING:
Additional data regarding John Gauldin (Gaulding) comes from Dr. Charles H. Gaulden's book "700 years of Gaulden History."In it he makes the following observation on p. 16:
"There is some speculation as to who was the first Gaulden to come to America.William Gaulding of Kansas gives an interesting idea, which has merit, of how early the family may have come to America.There is an early court record filed in 'Prerogative Court of Canterbury' , listing a John Goulding in the will of William Hallam in Brunam, Essex County, England, proved Sept. 8, 1657.Some records of the same man spell it 'Gaulding'.William Hallam had lands in New Kent County, Virginia.A John Goulding had head rights on the south side of the Rappohannock River in 1657, next to Major Thomas Goodrich, listed in New Kent County in 1658.'A Lancaster County Deed Book, p. 218' records '1656, Thomas Goodrich brought over John Goulding'.If Bill is correct, the Gaulding/Gaulden family came to America early in her history.Bill sees this John Gaulding and the John Gaulding of New Kent, Virginia, as possibly the same man."
In response to the suggestion made by Dr. Sherburne Anderson that the John Gaulding of New Kent Co. was the son of Rev. Thomas Goulding, "who came from Dorchester England in the great migration of more than 1000 Puritans who helped establish Dorchester, Mass." Dr. Gaulden writes, "Rev. Thomas Goulding, son of Jacob, moved with the church from Dorchester, Mass. to Dorchester, SC which the Congregationalists (Puritans) founded ca. 1720...John Goulding was born ca. 1698 and ultimately moved with his parents to York, County, New Kent County, Virginia.John Gaulding as a young man moved to the then Amelia County (later Prince Edward in 1754) Virginia.John married Elizabeth Geers and she was the relict when John's estate was probated in Prince Edward County in 1772."
He further supposes that the John (Matthew) Goulding who married Elizabeth Geers is the son of the John Gaulding who married Anne Stuart; "With all respect to Dr. Anderson, I think his hypothesis..is not entirely accurate.The John Gaulding in New Kent is not the same John Gaulding found in Prince Edward County..I think, and other researchers agree, they were father and son."
With regards to the John Gaulden of New Kent County, Dr. Gaulden further writes:
"Mr. John Gaulden was born ca. 1665 in England.This is a guess for I cannot find any Gauldens proven to be in a direct line before that date.He died about 1748 in New Kent Co. Virginia."
The church records listed in St. Peter's Parrish Register of New Kent show that a John Gaulden and Anne (Stuart) had a son named Alexander and possibly one named Matthew.A belief is that Matthew's full name must have been John Matthew Gaulden.Some basis of the belief centers on a particular court record in which John Gaulden and Elizabeth Geers of Prince Edward county, Virginia are seeking the custody of Alexander Gaulden's children, John and Susannah, upon Alexander's tragic death in December of 1752 (Court of Dyer and Terminer in Williamsburg, VA Library)"
Furthermore, "William Gaulding of Kansas concludes that John and Alexander must have been brothers, ..and I think he is correct."
"Another interesting note comes from a record in Glochester, England, Westburg on Sevren (CO 32752-6397) listing a John and Ann Goulding/Gaulding having a son John, born 2-17-1688.Could this be the same John and Anne of New Kent with a son John II?"
(Note: Dr. Gaulden also calls John II "Matthew")

Notes for ANNE STUART:
Information regarding Anne Stuart, married John Gaulding, comes from Dr. Charles H. Gaulden's book:
"Anne (Stuart) who married John Gaulden, was born about 1680 (my guess).She died Oct. 27, 1735 in New Kent Co. Virginia. Some have indicated that Anne's maiden name was Stuart, but it is not confirmed.An Alexander Stuart was in the area, and that could account for one of her son's being named Alexander.In Dec. 1752, Anne's son Alexander died and a James Stuart was given custody of one of his children.Perhaps James Stuart was Anne's brother, thus the court ruled in favor of the great uncle (James Stuart) rather than the uncle (John Gaulden II)."
