I don't know, but Vinis' my best friends mother maiden name was Harris. I know a lot of people with that last name and it is of English origin if I'm not mistaken.
Yes Anglo influence in the West Indian Islands. The West Indian cricket team of the 70s and 80s were formidable opponents for us here in Oz. Surnames such as Richards, Haynes, Greenidge, Garner, Holding, Lloyd, Roberts, Marshall, Ambrose etc were feared, respected, heckled, by many Aussie crowds. (All black men, no doubt of West African descent.)
Thanks. I knew that name had to have came from somewhere other than Jamaica because it is too popular of a name here in the states. So the English must have loved passing that surname on to different countries.
Parts of the Jamaican dialect is Irish. From the Irish indentured servants brought to the island after the African slave rebellions.
Take a look at former pussycat doll Kaya Jones is Jamaican, no one believes her until she shows the family photos. Reggae Artists Bob Marley, his dad was Irish. Most of the islands are super mixed ethnically.
Thanks. I will remember this.
Very much the same in the States, yes. Most African-Americans have English surnames, right? Jackson, James, Carson, Johnson, Jones, Davis, Lewis, and so on through numerous generations going back to the transatlantic slave days.
Hmm. I don't think I learned this in any of my history classes. Thank you.
Jamaica is in the Commonwealth so maybe she got that name from a Limey.🤭💐
Could have.
