If anyone can dig out place of birth, exact date of birth, details of early life that would be a great help. She was educated in the USA and Golding is, I think, her married name. Jezhotwells (talk) 00:13, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

You need to state the fact that she moved to the UK. Give the date if you can.
The article began badly by having the first sentence focussed on the location of her birth, which was insignificant as everyone was born somewhere, and unless she was the first birth on Rockall, on on the top of the Washington Monument it really doesn't go in the first sentence. Whatsmore, having read that, and knowing that South Carolina is in the US, the reader is then led to think that Golding is High Sheriff of Bristol in the US. Nowhere did you mention the important little matters of US and UK. Don't presume that just because you know you are referring to Bristol in England that your reader will. A cursory reading made me look twice at the 1,000 year old position and remind myself that we had jumped, somehow, across the Atlantic.
