British Guyana
« on: Thursday 17 December 15 07:01 GMT (UK) »
Not sure if this is in the right place only joined yesterday but here goes. Looking for my grandfathers family in BG. James Augustus Croal  b 1895 in BG to Adallon Croal and unknown mother .Believed to have a half sister. We know there were lots of Croals in BG but can't match any up with my grandfather. He became a merchant seaman and arrived in Cardiff  went back and forth to America. Any help would be greatly appreciated  :)
