Synopsis "The People of the Windward Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, and Curacao, 1620-1860 (in English)"
The Windward Islands form part of the Lesser Antilles, which stretch from Puerto Rico to the fringes of Venezuela. Since the 17th century, these islands attracted immigrants from Europe, initially from Spain but soon also from the British Isles, France, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia. This volume covers 200 years of inihabitants of the Windward Islands, as well as those of Curacao, Trinidad, and Tobago, which lie close to the coast of Venezuela. In all, Mr. Dobson identifies over 2,000 inhabitants of these islands between the years 1620 and 1860. For each person we are given a name, occupation, date and the source, and sometimes the names of family members, additional dates (marriage, death, etc.), vessels traveled upon, and other details.
