Richard and All, Now that Richard have me back on the Moravian trek, I have been going through the bits and pieces of my files and documents for possible leads to obtaining the documents. I found an extraction I copied and it reminded me why I started the pursuit of these records. For those of us who want to make the 'African Connection' this is an example of what can be found in their records. In 1762 the Following: Marriage Register. Jan .21 ANDREAS, a Negro from Ibo, Guinea, W. Africa; he was presented to Spangenberg by Thomas Noble of New York; d Apr. 13, 1779 in Bethlehem. MAGDALENA, a Negress from Popo, Guinea.

Ann, what records are these? Sorry I'm not up to date with Richard's and your conversation. Fill me in! I'd love to find records like the one mentioned below for my family. So far I've found one decendant, of Tortola, BVI, that may be of direct African decesent (he's actually the grandson of an African and my great, great, great grandfather).
