Hi... This is my periodic query for connections to any LYNCH who may have lived in or travelled from / to Barbados - or any other Caribbean Island. In the face of my continuing "brick wall" in Barbados about 1804, I have accumulated what amounts to a surname study for the region, and have some 1700 entries for LYNCH and associated family, including a wealth of HONYCHURCH family members, mainly for Barbados and Antigua, but including Trinidad and others. To promote the spread of and to contribute to Caribbean genealogy I also started the FREE Caribbean Surname Index almost a decade ago, have created many pages of Caribbean Genealogy Resources, re-published Oliver's "Caribbeana" and "History Of Antigua", and am the distributor of "Barbados and America"... http://www.candoo.com/surnames/ http://www.candoo.com/genresources/index.html http://www.candoo.com/olivers/caribbeana.html http://www.candoo.com/olivers/index.html http://www.candoo.com/projects/banda.html Please contact me if you know (or suspect) that one or more of your ancestors fit the names below and went to or arrived from (or may have arrived from) one of the Caribbean islands - there was busy traffic between the islands and Virgina/New England, for instance. Here are my names of specific interest within 50 years before and after 1800 (this list is not limiting): Surnames IN BARBADOS: LYNCH and ADAMS, CHENERY, GALE, ALSOP / ALSOPP / ALLSOPP, MAYERS. Most especially: Menifred/Minifred Lynch, John Richard Lynch, Hazell / Hazzell Lynch, Hamlet Mayers Lynch, Hamlet Fairchild Lynch, Adelaide Christabelle Thomas, Rowena Cheeks / Cheekes Assumed probable territories of greatest interest: Ireland, England, Scotland, Barbados, Tobago, Antigua, Jamaica, and the north american colonies trading with the West Indies.

All, The link I attached contains numerous addresses and emails for various Islands. In addition, I "sniped" two of the entries that I thought might address the subject at hand. Note that the Kensington, London Family History center has "many resources". Not sure if they copy and place loan to the US, but if enough of us phone, email, contact your local center with requests for these documents, we might make a difference. I am presently in contact with Margot Thomas, head of Archival records in St Lucia, re Pollard and Moore information. Will keep you posted.
