Jamaicanos en Cuba
Buenas tardes Richard,
Mi hija me comentó que usted tiene un Blog en Internet sobre la presencia Jamaicana en Cuba y me resultó interesante la idea.
Yo tengo 70 años y soy hija de padres Jamaicanos pero realmente no he
tenido mucho vínculo con otros descendientes por lo q que espero
mediante su página familiarizarme más con estos temas.
En espera de su orientación sobre las informaciones que puedo obtener mediante su blog le saluda :
Glendora Isabel Wray Campbell.

Hi Mr. Jose,
How are you? I read your commentary on life in
Cuba and felt compelled to contact you regarding my paternal grandmother, a
Black woman from St. Catherine named Indiana Graham-Harrison, her son David
Harrison, and my step grandfather (don’t know his name) who lived in Cuba
round about 1910 to 1930ish. This timeframe is a guess based on my father’s
birth date in Jamaica (he wasn’t registered) and approximate age when he
returned to Jamaica. As a baby/toddler, he traveled on his mother’s passport
to Cuba with her husband, a Mr. Harrison.
While I am not sure if they settled in this Banes
area that you speak so richly of, I am praying that they did and hope that
you can make some enquires for me to see if anyone remembers them. I recall
that my grandmother (Indiana) told me that she even had a court case that she
won. As a young child, I don’t recall the details.
My maternal grandmother also lived in Cuba for a
while. Her name was Ellen Lipscombe-Perry and at least one of her daughters
was born in Cuba, Estella Perry. Are you in a position to assist me in any
way to trace my roots in Cuba?
Hoping to hear from you at your earliest. May I take
this opportunity to wish you all that’s best for Christmas and the New Year.
Indiana
(named after my grandmother Miss Graham

Estimado
colega, que Dios lo bendiga, pues en primer lugar es un placer haber
contactado con Ud para comunicarle que soy profesor de atletismo en la
Universidad de Sancti Spiritus de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Cultura
Física y Deportes. Mi nombre es Carlos Manuel Isidoria Wuitar. Yo le doy
gracias Dios porque en estos dias estuve un encuentro con un primo mio y me
facilitó un pasaporte de mi abuelo por parte de madre, de origen jamaicano
del año 1919. Mi abuelo se llamaba Rodney Witter o Godney Witter. Yo tengo
el pasaporte de mi abuelo, por cierto un poco deteriorado, pero se puede
observar claramente su firma, la firma del Governador de Jamaica, la firma
del Acting Colonial Secretary y la del Señor de entonces Sir Leslie Probyn.
Mi mayor satisfacción es encontrar familiares que haya dejado mi abuelo en
Jamaica para poder tener contacto con ellos y desear verlos algun dia, o
por lo menos contactar.
Mi
querido Richards de poder ayudarme, le agradeceria mucho. Espero tener
contacto con Ud.
Atentamente:
Carlos.

Hello, my name is Kirk Fletcher. I was happy to
read the article you have published on the web about the Jamaicans in Cuba
over a century ago. I was told that my great grandfather was from Santiago
de Cuba. I am determine to find my remaining and extended family in Cuba.
Life has a way of fixing our destiny, my wife is Cuban from Sauga de
Tanamo, Holguin . I always feel connected to Cuba, now I am thinking about
buying a house there. Please
reply.
Thank you ,
Kirk Fletcher
