Re: Caribbean Exiles, Huguenots, St. Domingo
My family history has a similar story. My ancestors were French land owners in St. Dom. After the revolt they escaped to Cuba where my gggrandfather and his siblings were born. The family came first to North Carolina and then to Wisconsin and finally Illinois. I have no records from their time in St. Dom or Cuba. Only the story of their eventual arrival in the US. Looking for any information about the history of the French in the Caribean.
