Geraldine Lane has drawn on her experience as a family history researcher in Barbados to compile this unique, comprehensive guide to Barbados genealogy. Family records held in Barbados (a British colony from 1637 to 1966) are excellent but are not always easy to locate or understand. But no matter the level of difficulty, "Tracing Ancestors in Barbados" will guide both novice and experienced researchers through the many types of records and published sources that document the lives of the people of Barbados.
