Nationality

I was born in Boston, Massachusetts to Bernanette Bethune & George Herbert. I don't want to talk about my history I want to talk about my ethnic background. Both my parents were born on a little island call Montserrat is the West Indies. It was the second island discovered by Christopher Columbus (gross right ?). It is an English owned territory with an active volcano. The island was a part of the slave trade. People were brought from Africa and were made slaves on the island. A couple hundred years later  people from Ireland were bought to the island because of slavery. When an Irish man and an African women love each other they have little mulatto babies. A couple hundred years later here I am. A 6'4 light skinned man. I'm proud of my African and English/Irish DNA.

  1. Hello, you actually came up as a distant relative on my mother's 23andme account and I noticed you have the same surname as she does in your listing. Do you have any info about the O'Garro in your family tree?
    My grandfather's father was Thomas O'Garro (born in plymouth, Montserrat) and his father was Henry O'Garro.
