Biography

Eileen Angel Golding’s father, Richard Golding, and uncle, Herbert Golding, moved from their property, Goldsborough, near Roma, and took up land near Langlo Crossing (Por.2 Mount Morris) in early 1898. Their land selections were Grafton Plains and Ravenscourt.

Eileen Angel Golding was born in Charleville, the fourth child of Richard Golding and Margaret McPhie.  It is thought she was named after one of Richard’s sisters Angel Eveline Golding.  Eileen was baptised by the Anglican Bush Brothers at Langlo Crossing on Tuesday 8th August 1905.  She passed away on Christmas Eve of heat apoplexy and was buried in the Langlo Crossing Cemetery on Christmas Day 1905.

The Golding families were resident in the district until around 1912 when they took up land around Isisford. The land they took up did not support the two families and Richard moved with his family to live in North Rockhampton.
