its my moms dad. hes probably dead now. if hes still alive there hes like 98 or something. the last person who knew anything was my great uncle who also came from Jamaica but he couldn't remember a thing and took the family secrets to the grave. We dont know his real name because my grandma used a fake name on the birth certificates because she was having a child out of wedlock and that's what they did back in the day. I think he went back to Jamaica and started a new family.
It all makes me think they fled because they were in trouble or avoiding some trouble -- but in the process they severed any ties with the family we had over there. Crazy huh?
So my family here is very small. They either got here -- or they didn't.
