Hello,

I know it is a long shot! but I am trying to track down any information about my paternal great grandfather. His name was James Edgar Clunis, the only information i have is what he has given in a 1911 Welsh Census and from his death certificate. He was approximately born in 1887 in Kingston, Jamaica. He came to Wales, however i do not know when or how he arrived, can only find him in the 1911 Welsh Census at the age of 24, he has also given his religion as a Presbyterian. He was 36 when he died and his children were very young, so no family stories or memories handed down.

I have no idea where to start looking or if i have enough information to get off the ground!!
Any information would be gladly appreciated

Hello i am trying to research my great grandfather, he was born in Kingston Jamaica in roughly 1887, i can not find many records for him. I have managed to find him in the 1911 census, where his birth place is listed as Kingston  Jamaica, but it also states that he is a resident by parentage, just wondering what this could mean? Does it mean his parents were British? Also my grandfather was black if this helps, feel a bit silly for asking.

Cheers

Hi i am looking for any information on my ancestor William Sheehy 1857, who came to Wales in about 1882 apparently on the run for an incident with the black and tans. He was using his mothers maiden name of Ryan, was having difficulty locating him in welsh census's and asked for further info all of the details are provided in this link http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=763211.9

If indeed he was on the run and the incident with the black and tans is true, where do i go to find out more information.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
