Hi all thanks for the advice and help. I'm trying to find my partners grandfathers side
Herman S Dyer year of birth 1938 date of death in this country 2002. Herman left st Elizabeth, Jamaica when he was 18 I believe and come to the uk for a better life. He married a English lady named Doreen hearm in 1958 at Bridge, Kent and they had 5 children Terser 1958, Elaine 1959, Ena 1960, Wendy and Stephen 1962.

we also know that Herman Had a son before he came to England named Rupie or Rupert.

oh we also know he had two Brothers named Hector and Kenneth and sisters named Tynet, Dunsey and lulabell {not sure of spelling for last 2 sisters}

but that's ALL we know of Herman { even his children don't know anymore}

Thanks for the help again :-)

wonder if the father was Rupert as well?

suggest you go on the free Mormon website - www.familysearch.org - there are loads of Dyers in Jamaica and in Elizabeth too - it's an easy site to negotiate

Just found out that Herman's son who is some where in Jamaica is called ruppie or some sort of spelling like that

that sounds very much like a shortening of Rupert

I assume that this is his death. He was not born in 1938?
