JAMAICA: Almond / Dias
« on: Sunday 19 December 10 11:03 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I have been trying to find more out about my ancestor George Samuel Dias c1882-1916. The 1911 UK Census states he was a Jamaica Resident as his birthplace he was living in Toxteth Park Liverpool and his occupation is Seaman. He married Sarah Ward in toxteth Park Liverpool 1903 the marriage certificate states his father as being William Almond occupation Planter.
I have tried endlessly to try and find more out about him, He died in 1916 so none of the surviving family knew much about him.
I have contacted various resources in Jamaica and have joined the Jamaica Family Search site but have yet to find out anything about him.
It was suggested that he was possibly from unmarried parents as he does not have his fathers name, as his father is noted as being a planter I wondered if this meant anything.
I would appreciate any advice or help anyone can give
Julie
