About The List
Below is my list of people with the family name Houlden. The idea to create this page came after I started receiving emails from other Houldens who simply wanted to say hello or were tracing their family tree. I have registered this page with several search engines and hope it will prove to be interesting to anyone searching for their long lost relatives.

Everyone listed here has asked me to add their details. Click here to submit your details for inclusion on this page.


Email Addresses
If you are listed here, please remember to send me your new email address if it changes. Many of the people below do not have email links displayed because the addresses they originally sent to me are no longer valid.

Note that email addresses are not stored in their usual form in this web page. I use JavaScript to generate the mailto: links. This protects your email address against being found by spambots which search web pages.

Currently researching the Houldens, my Grandfather George (born 1908) was Rutland born, from where I originate. His father George was born 1875 in Raithby, his father was George Edward (born 1846 Louth), his father was William (born 1817 Covenham St Mary's Lincs) and if correct his father William married in Covenham church in 1804. I've kind of got stuck there.
Nice to see so many Houldens out there.

I'm the son (1 of 5 kids) to George and Kay Houlden (nee Proctor). My father originated from Lincs as I believe all the Houldens did. I for some reason believe the name is Dutch and came over with the Dutch for land reclamation in Lincolnshire (correct me if I'm wrong). Would sure love to contact those who know. I'm blown away to find this site so thanks to who set it up. I'm 53 now and have been a merchant seaman all my life as a ships cook (poor buggars had to eat it lol ). Captive audience or what. My dad George was in the Leicestershire regiment. My father was born 27th May 1910. He was George William. He was born in Lincoln to Edith and George William Houlden. His grandfather also bore the same forenames I believe. As far as I know there is only one remaining person from that part of the family in Lincoln. Explosion of Houldens in Birmingham though and all those are related to George William. Anyone who can supply anything further on this branch of the family, please contact me, I'd love to know. Meanwhile I'll get more info from my mum Kay Houlden. Cheers all.

I was given Houlden as my middle name to keep the name going, as it appeared to be coming to the end of the family line. My grandmother was Freda Houlden, of Bootle in Lancashire; daughter of clipper ship captain Fred Houlden and his American bride, Alice. Freda had four siblings: Clem, May, Olive, and Harry. There may be a Keith Houlden, nephew of my grandmother, last known in Wales. Not a full Houlden myself, but I did suffer years of teasing as a child in Australia, where there was a common car, the Holden (no U) Commodore... Heather Holden Commodore, I was, for years.

Hello, Houldens. My dad is Rex and grand-dad Herbert. I am 24 years old and hope curiosity doesn't kill the cat. Besides, from my experience Houldens are dog lovers. Take care all. xxx
