Hi Dick, Many thanks for checking for me. If I get lucky enough to get as far back as your source, I will be thrilled!!! I have now begun to focus on Martinique, so hope I make some progress once I understand the various sources available. Also thanks for the info on Edwin Alcee. You did send me that a while ago now (must be 2 years or so) and at the time I did not have a connection, as the only Edwin I was aware of was a couple of generations out. However, I do now know the Edwin Alcee you have. He is part of another branch of the family, who I am now in touch with. Much appreciated. Regards, Penny
