Sorry you are not completely correct here. Although there are a lot of names on the IGI, from the research of the LDS members, MOST of the names on the IGI are are from Parish Registers that have been filmed by the LDS Filming Team, & these have been viewed & Indexed by LDS members, as part of their service to their Church. As I said it the earlier message the IGI should be used as a finding aid only, & if you are lucky enough to find family names there, always check out the source of the information & if it was a film, order that film & check the details for yourself. Sometimes Indexes contain errors, so you should always go to the original document to prove the facts. As for the facts that are submitted by members of the LDS, if you find one of your family listed on the IGI from that source, you may be lucky as I was. By contacting the submitter of the information, he was able to put me in touch with one of our family members, previously unknown, that he had had corresponence with & this has opened a whole new world of family to us in the USA, several of whom are also researching the family, so our genealogy has grown beyond all imagination, all from that source 8 yrs ago. We have had several trips to the USA, during that time, one for a Family Reunion. So please keep an open mind when visiting the LDS, & remember although you may not find the answers you hope for, there may be ways to locate the information. Many times I have tried to imagine doing genealogy without the Mormon records, & that does not bear thinking about, especially when one lives on the other side of the world from where our ancestors lived.

The IGI is compiled by members of ther Morman church of their family tree, and submitted the the church for religious purposes, and can be very subjective.

Jim -- I am going to copy the paragraph from Codrington Correspondence which deals with this. The books answer is sort of a compromise between what I had said before and your position: Twenty-five years later his son, Christopher, moved to Antigua, where he bought land and, at Betty's Hope, founded the first sugar plantation on the island, covering some 725 acres. He became Captain-General of the Leeward Islands in 1689, and, owing to his distiguished career and his distinguished services, in 1684 he was granted the island of Barbuda, and his family held this in feudal fief for over two centuries. Codrington died in 1698 The writer of the paragraph above was Robson Lowe, who was not an historian but rather the head of Robson Lowe, Ltd -- the stamp dealers of Christie's of London. Mr. Lowe is, of course, very meticulous. I am too, so I grabbed my copy of "Bondsmen and Rebels" and found the following (speaking of Codrington): Already in Antigua when he arrived were some Surinam refugees who brought capital, useful connections, and considerable experience wiht plantation agriculture and were willing to settle down again to planting in their new home. Among them were the Willoughby, Martin, and Byam families, whose descendents became leading figures in the Caribbean islands. David Barry Gaspar, p. 66. Gaspar's work was on Antigua and did not touch on Barbuda, but does show that even a careful writer will make mistakes at margins of his interest. Lowe was interested in the Codrington's and their letters more than Antigua history. Fortunately, he was interested in these letters. I believe what was granted the Codringtons were leases as you suggest and that these leases were at their ends so that the total time that Codrington's had virtual control of the island approached the 200 years mentioned by Mr. Lowe.

Hi Richard, Please read below and let me know if you find it helpful to your search from the 1850's onwards. Thanks. Richard INDEX TO PLANTATIONS. The department has compiled a card index from directories showing owners of plantations under the plantation name, mainly during the 19th and 20th Centuries, which is also helpful for some family searches. NEWSPAPERS. There are newspapers in Barbados for 1783-1784, 1787-1789, and for most years from 1805 onwards. Although the earliest Barbados newspaper is believed to have been published in 1731, only a few single issues in the years 1733, 1742, 1745-1747, 1753, 1761, 1766, 1775, 1781, 1783 and 1803 are known prior to the collections existing in Barbados. Extracts from the newspapers between 1783 and 1870, mostly relating to Barbadian affairs and families, have been published in Volumes 1 to 33 of The Journal of The Barbados Museum and Historical Society. BARBADOS MUSEUM AND HISTORICAL SOCIETY JOURNALS. The Barbados Museum and Historical Society, established in 1933, has published a Journal since that date. Volumes 1 to 25 have been indexed for names by Mr. E. M. McConney, now of Portland,Oregon, in typescript. The index is available for use at The Museum, and at the Department of Archives. The Museum has a considerable genealogical collection, including the notebooks of the late Mr. E. M. Shilstone. Enquiries should be addressed to The Director of the Society, at The Garrison, St.Michael, Barbados. RESEARCH. The Department does not undertake extended genealogical research for enquirers, but will on request give the names and contacts for any research agent currently active. Researchers at the Department have access to the notebooks of the late Mr. H. G. Hutchinson who specialised in searching genealogies. SITUATION AND OPENING HOURS. The Department is situated 3.5 miles north of Bridgetown, on Highway 1 (West Coast Road). It is open Mondays to Fridays from 8:30 a.m. until 4:15 p.m. The Department is permitted to close between 12 noon and 2:00 p.m. in the event a shortage of staff at lunchtime will leave the Search Room unsupervised.

Dear Listers, First: thank you, Heather, for all the time/energy/research you put into foiling these .........? What word can we use that would not reduce us to their level? Second: I have an old Mac. This is what I use for public sorts of things like genealogy lists. My viruses have been....very few (nil, actually). Third: My credit union makes my accounts very UNFRIENDLY to Macs, so I bought a PC on e-Bay for a song. It, too, is a "used" model, though it is MUCH faster than my Mac and it actually cost next to nothing. (I share the monitor with both. I flip the switch: left (PC) for banking , right (Mac) for everything else, including this site. Genealogically speaking, most of my ancestors whose "cause of death" I have been able to access seem to have exited from cardiac arrest. I am trying, via the Mac, to alter my genetic pre-disposition. Good wishes, Joan

Richard: I have obtained copies of birth/bapt/death & marriage records. They will not do any searches for you, but if you have name and accurate date I have had no problem. The person and e-mail address that I have used is: Mrs.Cherri-Ann Burton (she appears to prefer Mrs. rather than Ms.) archives@sunbeach.net David (Bladen)

Dear Richard, I have copies of certificates from the registrar and it takes forever. 3 months is not out of the question and they are no more than a typed form containing no more information than you get from the microfilms from LDS. You have to send a bank draft or postal order in Barbadian Dollars, they don't accept US or Canadian Dollars although they will accept Sterling. So if I was you I would just photocopy the entries you want from the LDS microfilms.

I have done research at the Barbados Archives, in Black Rock, St. James and copies of the records, even if you are there, are obtained by filling out a request form. The request is then sent down to the Registrar's Office in town. (St. Michael parish) You can either go and pick it up there or have it sent back to the Archives, usually, in a few days. Most of the Sanders records are on microfilm available through LDS Libraries and can be reproduced, if the branch has a reader that makes copies. This is a more *accurate record, since at the Registrar they hand copy the information onto either a birth, marriage of death certificate form. (*Each time a record is copied it increases the chance of an error being made.) If you are fortunate enough to get go to the Barbados Archives they do allow you to photograph records.

----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Allicock To: Joan Marie Sent: Saturday, May 03, 2003 10:14 PM Subject: Harbin Jew or Quaker From: "Richard Allicock" <richwyn@idirect.com> To: "Joan Marie" <meyering@open.org> Subject: Re: Joseph Harbin Jew or Quaker Date: May 3, 2003 10:00 PM Hi Joan Marie, I do not think at the time that Joseph died that the reference to Jew in the records would have been derogatory. Since the same appellation is not written against the names of Sarah, and Alexander, this might mean that Joseph was a practising Jew and the others were not. Jews at this time had benefited from the Civil War in England which brought Oliver Cromwell to power in the 1600's. It was under Cromwell that the ban against Jews entering, the UK was repealed and Jews returned to England after almost 400 years, being banished in 1290. Cromwell's army was a bible thumping one, and their bible was the old testament, which most Christians seem to forget is the Jewish Bible. Much of the colonisation of North America by the Puritans was seen as a project of building the New Jerusalem. Being persecuted themselves they preached religious toleration and set an exmple to others back in England. Jews were also important as settlers of the early English colonies for trade and military purposes. Trade because of their international ties in the Dutch empire, and militarily, because having been expelled from Spain and Portugal, they were also expelled from those colonies that were under the Portuguese and Spanish control in the West Indies. As such they had information that was critical in the English and Dutch fight with the Spanish and Portuguese for control of the New World. The expelled Jews had knowledge also of things military to the Portuguese and Spanish in Europe and even Asia and Africa, and the West Indies. For exmaple, in the taking of Jamica from the Spanish, there were Jews on the British naval ships who had lived in Jamaica and knew the Spanish strength and weaknesses. Jews who had repressed any evidence that they were Jews came out openly as Jews once the British took over. Also, in the early years of settling their colonies like B'dos, the British colonists depended on the Dutch for their supplies, and also to buy their products. In this trade the Jews wuld have been able to play a vital role in the success of the British colonies because of their connections back to Holland, where they had taken refuge after being expelled by the Spanish and Portuguese. Because they also took refuge in England, they were also in position to aid the success of the colonies after the British tried to ban the Dutch and other nations from supplying the English colonies, and wanted supplies to be only in English boats. What this meant is that the needed products had to be shipped to England from Holland and elsewhere, and then to the British West Indies. Again Jews were vital in keepig the trade and supplies and the success of the colonies going. So the attribution of Jew against Joseph's record was not derogatory, it was religious. People in those colonies at the time that Joseph died would still have had good regards for the Jews, given the critical part the Jews had played in the survival and eventually prosperity of the colonies. If Joseph was a quaker when he died, he would not have had the word Jew against his name in the record. So I think that you may have to do some more research on that angle. At best there would have been Dissenter as a note. So you may be looking for another Joseph Harbin, and I see he had a son called Joseph. The latter might have become a Quaker, or not. It might have been too early for Joseph Sr. to have become a Quaker before 1691, as Quakerism begun in the mid-1600's and struggled the rest of the century to survive. I said "or not" because Jews in South Carolina were not persecuted at this time, they were openly Jews, benefitting from the religious toleration established by the Puritans, many of them going on to become Patriots of the American revolution as Jews, in the revolutionary forces between 1776-1784, and even as high-ranking officers. So both Joseph and his son probably were not Quakers in South Carolina. The conversion to Quakerism may have happened to a subsequent Joseph. This is important if you are trying to find a grave. You will be looking in a Jewish Cemetary or a Dissenter/Quaker Cemetary. However, since the Will was proved in Barbados, you will have to see if a copy of it was also deposited in South Carolina, as Joseph said he had a plantation there. Whoever inherited the plantation or property (assuming the Will was up to date when he died) in South Carolina would have had to show that Joseph was dead and that person was his heir before the property could legally change hands. I hope the fore-going helps. Let me know if you tried to get a South Carolina Will. That will certainly give you a clue as to where he died and where he was buried. If he still remained a Jew as I suspect he did, you might more easily find where in South Carolina or Barbados he is buried, than if he had become a Quaker. Best regards, Richard

The nationally known Capt. Morgan Rum now made in Puerto Rico was originally a medicinal tonic made in Jamaica. I believe it was made by the Levy Brothers firm in Kingston before it was bought by Seagrams tycoon Sam Bronfman who relocated production to obtain the benefit of lower taxation for sales to the States. I wonder if those downtown Levy Brothers had a connection with Charles?

Have a question about an anti virus program that was rated very highly for ease in installing and using, from Pc World and PC Magazine. Its called PcCillin from Trend Micro and its supposed to be easier and more complete, at least in tests , than the new MacFee 7.0 I understand some people have complained that it is more difficult for general users like me to install and set up properly.. Same with new Norton. Its time for me to get new antivirus and thinking about this.. Wonder if any of you have any experience with this one?
