Synopsis "Appendices: Tracing My Paternal Ancestral Roots from the Illegitimate to the Legitimate: Blake, Graham, Allwood, & Harrison (Volum"
Why go halfway through my ancestral journey? Now that your appetite is whetted with the enthralling reveals on my paternal ancestors in the main text, complete the journey with the missing documentary proof on my paternal family. You will be delighted to read the intimate pages of my father's letters to me discussing his daily life, spilling family trivia, and detailing life in Jamaica for him during those times - no holds barred. You can also walk through with me, in living color (black and white), what my retirement home will look like with the birds flying up yonder to welcome me home atop the mountain range, and the imaginary grassy knoll trying to turn green as shown on the front elevation plan. You can also catch me waving on the balcony/gallery or sunbathing on back porch of the first-floor plan with its spacious three bedrooms. The ground floor plan shows off the the two-bedroom guest flat and breakfast area with me cooking ackee and saltfish to kick start the day and the basement plan displays my double-car carport, the two-room helper's quarters, my store and laundry rooms, and the stairs. Aspiring architects will find accreditation standards to follow for a career in the field. Don't miss out on the ancestral tracing tips and guidelines I provided to help you navigate your own journey in the form of a relationship chart, the code map for each parish in Jamaica, and a historical map of Jamaica. You will also be able to traverse my grandmother's townships of Marlie Hill and Macca Tree in St. Catherine and the Kingston streets and lanes where I lived in my formative years. The Jamaica Civil Registration coverage area along with surname and other supporting maps for the 1881 origins of the Graham/Allwood and Harrison last names complete the navigational tracks and pointers. Surely, you will want to meet my paternal family's acquaintance or reacquaint with them vicariously through photographs and artifacts such as family members' careers (in brief), immigration and travel records, obituaries, and legal documents summarizing their past lives. Don't miss out on the illuminating and telltale correspondence thrown in for good measure. For the future, a TOG - Table of Generations was started as breadcrumbs specifically for the next generation of paternal descendants among many, many more family treasures and ancestral findings. Closure comes in the form of a poem on family heritage titled: Thick Blood or Thin Water Family?
