I went to Grenadagirls' website andposted a few notes about the following surnames :Louis LaMotte jr and Peter LaMotte, Dorabella De Cuteau who marrieda Preudhomme/Prudomme, Steele and Margret Alexander, Muriel CatherineLaMotte and Fedora Grant. There are several inquires posted on the site so I had a lot to choosefrom when responding.As a matter of fact, I had been on the site some time ago and foundinteresting information re the headstones i.e. Catherine SylviaLaMotte-Stevenson daughter of Louis LaMotte Sr and wife CatherineBelfon-LaMotte.The links to the info re: '...the British Library archiving the Grenadadata' is Fantastic. I am excited to ultimately see WHAT we will be able to retrieve withouthaving to make international calls to Parishes'. Catholic churchrecord would be very revealing. No doubt that we will be able toconnect several dots with this resource by the British library. Once again thanks so much for sharing. I hope fellow researchers save this email and the valuable link to their"research file" folder.Cuzin' Choli-----Original Message-----From: caribbean-bounces@rootsweb.com[mailto:caribbean-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Cathy A.Sent: Monday, December 14, 2009 9:21 PMTo: caribbean@rootsweb.comSubject: Re: [Carib] CARIBBEAN Digest, Vol 4, Issue 234Hi Lila and other listers,Have a look at what the British Library has to say on the digitisationof the Grenada records <http://www.bl.uk/about/policies/endangeredarch/2009/brown.html>.
