I'm looking for information on two branches of what are probably the same Duff family - one in Jamaica; one in Portugal - about the turn of the 19th century. Unfortunately, I don't know the fathers, but I'm fairly sure that the ones in Jamaica were planters or merchants, while those in Lisbon, Portugal were probably wine merchants.
I do have is information on four of their daughters:
In Lisbon: Isabella and Frances Duff, born abt 1820-1825
In Jamaica: Jemima and Margaret Duff, born abt 1815-1820
Both families were Catholic, and two of the girls, Frances and Jemima, evidently became nuns.
Since this information is related to research I am doing for my PhD, any leads would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Kathy
