Hi, I am searching for the CHILDRESS and any variation, in the Caribbean Islands, namely the British Virgin Islands. Most interested in the ones who lived there in the early to late 1920s. Any hint or other guidance is greatly appreciated. If the records of this time are not in the British Virgin Islands, does anyone know where I could look otherwise. Thank you in advance for anything helpful. Kay
Hi Kay What evidence do you have that anyone of that name might have lived in the BVI in the 1920s? If you know of anyone, what was their religion, occupation, etc? The main family history resources to consult would be the microfilms held at the Civil Registry (Births, Deaths and Marriages) in Road Town, Tortola, BVI, but they have not yet been digitalised. Have you tried the various family history groups that googling the name reveals? E.g. The Childers-Childress Family Association The Childers/Childress Family Association was formed in 1982 and is the repository and clearinghouse for information on the Childers and Childress [names] www.childers-childress.com/ Peter Moll Tortola, BVI nomoney6@bellsouth.net wrote 08/11/2009 : > Hi, > I am searching for the CHILDRESS and any variation, in the Caribbean > Islands, namely the British Virgin Islands. > Most interested in the ones who lived there in the early to late 1920s. > Any hint or other guidance is greatly appreciated. > If the records of this time are not in the British Virgin Islands, does > anyone know where I could look otherwise.
