SUMMARY:Ancestry Talks with Paul Crooks
DESCRIPTION:Tracing African Caribbean Ancestry – Who do you think you are? \nJoin Ancestry Talks’ Paul Crooks for this captivating account of how he traced his Black Caribbean ancestors enslaved on a sugar plantation in Jamaica\, 200 years ago. In this masterclass\, Paul captivates audiences with his unique account of how he traced his roots and his family’s migration down through the generations to Windrush. \nAbout the Speaker \nTrailblazing author and family historian Paul Crooks pioneered research into African Caribbean genealogy during the 1990s. He traced his family history from London\, back 6 generations\, to ancestors captured off the West African coast and enslaved on a sugar plantation in Jamaica. \nIn the 1990’s\, Paul was told that it would be impossible to trace records of slave-ownership let alone his African ancestors enslaved on plantations in Jamaica. “No one had tried because such records did not exist.” Undeterred\, he embarked on a journey of discovery that led from suburban North London to Jamaica and ultimately back to the Gold Coast of Africa; an effort that has brought him international recognition for his breakthroughs in Tracing black ancestry. \nBook your free place via Evenbrite
