I am trying to get more information on my family.

My mom is a Charles as was her mom (Edris Charles).
My dad is a Mendes as was his mom (I believe her name was Neta Mendes).
My maternal grandfather was Nicodemus Phillip.
My paternal grandfather was Harmon Winston Benjamin.
My grandmother Edris had several siblings, all of whose names also started with E (Elon, Eva, Enoch, Earl, Elaine, Elton, Ena, Eric).
I believe Edris' father's name was Thomas Charles.

Hi K45H13 - I can help:

Thomas & Catherine Charles of St. Marks, Victoria had 9 children (all the Es you mentioned) and through these we have many, many cousins in Grenada, Trinidad, US, UK & I believe a branch in Aruba. There are only 4 of these siblings still alive (in their 60s/70s). Thomas's middle name was Thaddeus I believe and his mother was Oriana. Catherine's maiden name was Bonaparte and her mother was Christiana Campbell. I am one of the Es children. There is too much to mention here and it wouldnt be fair on anyone else.

Please respond if we seem to be singing from the same hymn book.

I think we are definitely singing from the same hymn book.
