Dear S Wint, How do you do? My maternal grandfather, Clement Wint, was cousin to Arthur Wint, the GG of Jamaica. I found this out 50 years ago when Arthur won a gold medal in the Olympics. The Sunday Times of South Africa had a huge picture of him streaking to victory. I saw it and he looked (on profile) just like my Grandad and his name was Wint. I took this up with my mom and she said they were cousins of Grandad's. I was so proud to have a gold medallist "in the family". I am a 57 year old Grandmother, divorced, living in Israel. I have 4 children, 6 grand children and I live in lovely place called Ramat Beit Shemesh. The Heights of the House of the Sun. I work in Jerusalem for one of the largest charities in the the world - as an English secretary. Who are you ? Have you found Victoria and Alisha yet ? I can give you their e mail addresses. They live in America. Nice to meet you and may G-d bless you. Rachel Moira Simson (born D'arcy-Donnelly) My mom was born Gwen Margaret Wint.
