Interesting theory.

Hi Kirt:

I've just checked my Cayman 1996-97 Cable+Worthless phone
book for both GCM and the Sister Islands and there are *no*
current listings for PINES (or PINE) as a surname. Sorry. As
you probably know, there are approx 60 Watlers listed in GCM none
on the Brac or LC.

BTW: I've been thinking about adding a Cayman Genealogy
section to =cayman.org= and would love any input on this idea.
(I've been working parts of my own lines - both sides=Swedish -
back into the 1600's so genealogy is a passion for me as well).
