10. Juliana Grace HART [KIRKLAND] [1]
Have finally discovered the name of WILLIAM PITT KIRKLAND'S wife! She was Juliana Grace HART. They married 1 March 1818 in St. Andrews Parish, Jamaica by license. Now I need HART information. If this surname appears in your family tree in Jamaica, please contact me. This is the only clue I have to the HART connection. William Pitt KIRKLAND, I have discovered, came from Louisiana to Jamaica. He and his wife had one known child: Laura Eliza Jane KIRKLAND. Thank you! Marie Snaith e-mail: marie@nid

12. HAUGHTON, Rowland St. Michaels Parish ,Barbados 1600's [1]
Looking for information on the HAUGHTON family of St. Michaels Parish, Barbados. Rowland HAUGHTON's will, dated 1691, mentions Paul CARRINGTON (presumably his son-in-law, the husband of Sarah HAUGHTON) and John and Mary GUBBINS, his in- laws. Is there any information on Rowland's parents? There was a Rowland Houghton (many variations on the spelling) who died in Jamaica in the 1660's. Is this the same family? Any clues about the origins of the HAUGHTON name? Many thanks. M.K. Perry

17. Re: haughton court - lucea, jamaica [1]
Sally's letter about the "Use of this Newsgroup" has given me some incentive to reply to queries in the newsgroup. Sometimes I do nothing as I assume there are people who know a lot more than I do. In Inez Sibley's "Dictionary of Place Names in Jamaica" she states that HAUGHTON COURT is near the town of Lucea in Hanover. It was previously known as Unity Estate and is named after two brothers, Jonathan and Valentine Haughton, who came from Barbados in 1670 and settled there.Jonathan died there in 1767 age

Hi Christopher, In response to your question, I was one missing in action. I enjoy the interchange of ideas in the group, but have been rather busy these last few months.

Am seeking any information on the Lenoir Family that was in Barbadoes in the period 1720-1800. A John LENOIR was a magistrate in the 1720's. Anyone know anything about his family?

Robert was loyal to the crown and fled captivity in Charleston when the British forces were forced to leave the city. Edgar D. Byler, III edby3@netease.net
20. Doens-Beaufond [1]
The New Orleans branch of my family has, as their grandmother, Gabrielle Doens-Beaufond from Martinique, who died in the 1930's. We have a good knowledge of the history of the Doens-Beaufond family down to roughly 1890 or 1900. We recently discovered that members of the Martinique branch of the family were still in communication with their New Orleans relatives in the 1910's and 20's, and in fact occasionally sent them products from one of their estates, perhaps the one they owned the longest, which was l
