• [Carib] Other FB sites, specifically for Montserrat

    From Pam@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 18 10:31:04 2017
    Hi,
    I found the FB page that was recently mentioned on this site to be very interesting. I wonder if there is such a site or other archival entity that specifically deals with Montserrat? My ancestors had the surname Irish and lived on that island. I have
    used the Oliver book found at the Allen County Public Library in Ft Wayne, but I am curious as to other references that would be helpful - thanks for your time.

    Hi Pam
    Don't have a specific answer to your immediate
    question..but there are sites online and on FB and
    some Blogs here and there as well
    Use Google and be relentless!
    For those of you who are interested there are
    digitized copies of Vols I-III History of Antigua
    V.L Oliver online at several locations and a good
    one at Internet Archive

    https://archive.org/details/historyofislando01oliv

    that is for Vol I...they have all of Oliver's
    works including the full text of Caribbeana online
    now. The most effective was to use these books is
    to download them in PDF and keep them for your own
    reading pleasure. The search features work
    differently depending on how the metadata was
    configured so use the main binoculars search and
    if you get no response for something basic then
    shift to the "Find" on page feature on the browser
    . Keep the searches simple it is not Google!
    Cod
