Can tracing your roots transform your understanding of family and self? In this episode I share my personal journey to uncover my Caribbean ancestry. Inspired by my fascination with history and guided by the methods seen in "Finding Your Roots," I delve into the complexities and joys of piecing together my family tree. From contacting Jamaican genealogical agencies to finding precious documents like my great-great-grandparents' marriage license from 1893, I share my experience throughout this meticulous process.
Learn about the quirks of historical record-keeping in the Caribbean, such as name variations and the impact of literacy rates on document accuracy. Hear anecdotes about how I identified ancestors despite inconsistent names and birthdates.
For those eager to embark on their own genealogical quests, I've got you covered with practical tips and strategies. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your research, this episode offers a treasure trove of insights to help you connect with your Caribbean heritage and preserve your family's legacy.
