Hi David,
James S Winter is my wife's great great grandfather, through her mothers side of the family. Family search has him born in Antigua 1843 to John Winter (but I don't have any verification for John). All the male winters I have traced- and some female- were mariners, including James S, and I am hoping to discover if his family were from the caribbean or if they were mariners too -St'Johns was a big naval centre at the time. Have you got any further info.? Regards,Ian

Ian...
Could you let me have your wifes TREE back to James Samuel?
Also how do you know about John Winter being father to James?
I have the Marriage Register Book copy of their marriage...do you have a copy?

We have a public family tree on Ancestry- "Meade Family Tree". The verified line is James Samuel, Alfred 1880-1946 then George 1912-1980. The only documentation I have is UK census returns and I don't have any marriage or birth documentation. Anything you can give me would be appreciated.
I have John as James' father from a familysearch IGI reference and I am waiting for the LDS film to arrive to establish the source document, if possible. Regards,Ian

Hello,
I am actually a member of the Winter family in Antigua and am looking for some info about our history. I found this thread and was wondering if you gentlemen may be able to help me.

I have not been able to progess this. I have verified this family line from UK records back to James Samuel Winter b 1843/44 in St.Johns. Family Search has the father of James Samuel as John b 1827 Green Turtle Bay Bahamas which would have John's age 16-18 at James'birth. I searched their film records and the info. on John was collected from a family member so it may be a genuine link but I cannot get further verification. Antigua Archives could not find any records. Hope this helps,Ian

All info that I have is related to James Samuel WINTER....I would willingly share with you, but could you please search the Records for Birth of this man at your side of the water.
The Records office in Antigua & Barbuda could not find the Birth....maybe you, as a local, could look into this.
Regards,
David
