I am looking for info about the Wint family that moved to Jamaica from Syria. My great-grandmother name was Thereas Wint. I will try and get more info about her and her parents from my grandmother Mable Williams.

Hi
I think we were at a family reunion at the starfish trewlany last july. we were the wints from London, will be glad to see if we can find out about the syrian connection as that was the first we heard of that... we though they came from germany.

look forward to hearing from you.

I was not at your reunion. I'm from Jamaica and now live in the US. I am looking for info about my grandmothers side of the family. Her name is Mable Williams and her mothers name was Teresa Wint before marrying. I don't have a lot of info. They had a reunion in Jamaica last year. I could not go, so I missed out on finding out a lot.

Hi
All of the wints based in London from our family come from jamaica.
The reunion was a wint/williams one.
I will have to give you some more info later but let me give you an idea of who we are.
My great granfathers name was Bruce wint married to sarah wint...
The have children.. Leslie, eldith, nellie, donald(my grandfather) Percy, Nora, stanley Beryl.
Aunt Beryl is in the US. sadly Aunt Nellie and eldith have passed. SAunt Eldith remained in jamaica and was a teacher and Aunt nellie lived in New york, Aunt Beryl lives in the usa. Aunt Nora is in jamaica.
My Aunt Mavis, who lives in the US also talks of her Aunt Teresea and she was at the reunion, she is a cousien of my grandfather.
We had always been told that the wints were two brothers that came from Germany, but we were advised at the reunion that there was a syrian connection. what do you know about that connection as it would be great to get to the bottom of this.

I still don't know if it's the same Wint family, but Teresa had a sister Anna Wint. Teresa married a man with the last name Williams and they had a lot children. One is my grandmother, Mable; and some others are Ruth, Ruben, Maud, Alvin. That is all I know for now.

I wanted to contact the person from London that may have had a connection to the Wint family that moved to Jamaica from Syria. Username Syretamitchel.
