Did you not look at the documents so graciously provided to you?
I did.
By the way, the correct response should have included, "Thank you for your efforts."
Maybe even, "Wow! That's great!"
Thanks for your efforts Francis Goveia Jr is my uncle and I know why he was travelling alone he was looking for my great-great grandfather is brother who ran away at 13 yrs.old. Also do you know who Francis Goveias' parents were?
Thanks for the info Is there any way of finding out who the parents and grandparents of Francis Goveia were?
His parents were Francis Goveia, and Charlotte Goveia
You would have to find a record that names them - usually a birth, marriage, or death record. Ancestry.com does not have any records from Guyana. FamilySearch appear to have some newspaper birth/marriage/death announcements from Georgetown, Guyana: https://www.familysearch.org/search/...Open=792101-50 - however, they have not been digitized yet, so you would have to visit the Family History Library in Salt Lake City to access them (or wait for them to be digitized).
