DNA: MKM Note: The surname McGoldrick is borne by descendants of the Mag Ualghairg sept, a branch of the O'Rourkes, who were rulers of Breffny. This sept was located on the Leitrim-Fermanagh borders. The descendants of the sept were scattered so that the surname McGoldrick now is found mainly in Co, Tyrone and Co. Sligo as well as Co. Fermanagh. McGolrick, McGoulrick and McGorlick are variant spellings on record while the English surname Goulding has been reported by the Registrar of Births as used interchangeably with McGolrick in Downpatrick Union, Co. Down. Residence: The first permanent white resident of Calis arrive in 1779 from Machais, Maine, some 45 miles south. Many of the first residents were from that area in Maine. It is said he and two other built the first saw-mill in the area. Some years later Saint Stephen, across the St. Croix river was settled by men from Calais. By 1790 there were 16 residents of Calais and several hundred in Ste. Stephen. Census: 1861 census at Ste. Stephens, Charlotte, New Brunswick, CANADA shows: Andrew McGoldrish, age 32, Irish, lumberman; Elinor, age 24, Irish; James, age 3, native; Andrew, 7mo., native. Census: 1871 census of Ste.

New Brunswick: James, 13; Andrew, 9; George, 5; Margaret, 3. Census: The index to the 1881 census at Milltown, Charlotte, New Brunswick lists the family of Andrew McGendnet. The family members and ages are those of "my" Andrew McGoldrick so I can only assume that the handwriting or image must be bad. The index lists the following: Andrew, 53, b. IRELAND, labourer, Roman Catholic; Ellen, 40, b. IRELAND, Roman Catholic; children all b. New Brunswick, all Roman Catholic: James, 22; Andrew, 19; George, 17; Margret, 14; May, 9. Died: Charlotte County Death Index lists: Andrew McGoldrick, residence Union Milltown, died Oct. 6, 1888 at Milltown, New Brunswick, male, age 58. Occupation, load contract; religion, Roman Catholic; cause of death, asthma, suffered 1 year; born, Ireland; informant, Rev. C. Doyle. The death certificate of Andrew lists his death place as Union Mills. Union Mills, Milltown and Saint Stephen merged to become Saint Stephen. Buried: The McGoldrick monument is about feet high with inscriptions on four sides. I deduced it must have been erected by Andrew McGoldrick, son of Ellen and Andrew, Senior, maybe at the time of Ellen Bresnahan McGoldrick's death. The inscription to Andrew reads: "In Memorium, Andrew McGoldrick died October 4, 1888, Aged 6years, Native of Milltown NB, May they rest in peace." Find A Grave e-Memorial
