Hi i noticed you are interested in the surname Salmon. I have recently found out that i have some connections with the Salmon family. Through a David Salmon who I've been told was a nephew to my great grandmother whose name was Lilian Dockery. She was from St Elizabeth Jamaica. Also a possible connection through the surnames Reid, Wright, West and Levy

I also have a ancestor my 4th great grandmother who in 1826 was a enslaved person to John Salmon in Jamaica. Her name was Sophia West age 1 year old.

I'm thinking The Salmons maybe of the same family?

Do you have any connections to any of these names?
