to Ronnie, you said your paternal link has carty's, could you post some of your paternal link cartys names. As you know the people from the islands move to different islands in the past seeking work, so who were your cartys name on your paternal side in the late 1800's or early 1900's. johnny james carty and johnny joseph carty are my relatives born in the 1800's. Know telling if they were born in st kitts or not when their children immigrated they immigrated from st kitts. thus, you could be my relative, but i would not know, unless you share information. Johnny James Carty is my great great grandfather. Also, i would like to ask you were there immigrant boats coming to the islands beside slave ships and if so did they keep a record of immigrant passenger list do you know? God Bless
