Mould's of Jamaica
From: "David Townsend" <nmtdet@hotmail.com>
Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002

I am researching my ancestors/relatives from Jamaica prior to 1909.The only information I have still from my Grandmother, Linda Ledward-Townend is four photographs (tintype?) below of "her" Cousins the Mould's.
Doris Mould (child of about 4 - 7 years of age). Doris Mould with male friend in Central Park, New York City (approx.1900?). Stanley Mould and Herbert Mould.

The photos of the two brothers/boys  are "tintype" images and guessing date back to early to middle 1800's in Jamaica.  The photographs of Doris in New York dates back to late 1800 early 1900's.
This is all the information I have on them and know they are my relatives because of my Grandmother Linda Ledward-Townsend of Port Royal, Jamaica stating "cousin" on the back of each photo/image.
I have no other information on these Mould relatives but would like to find out more about them.  I have been to http://www.familysearch.org but there is nothing on them in Jamaica there.  The only references there are for Eugenie View Mould and George Alexander Hutchings Mould and Thomas Rowlings Mould.  It is possible Thomas Mould could be one of the Parents of Herbert or Stanly due to "his" birth date of 1867.
These Mould's of Jamaica are angosaxon people.
I subscribed to the JamaicanFamilySearch Website for one month and this is what I come up with here for the name of Mould.

More than likely "these" Mould's listed on this website are related but how, I have no ideal.

When my Grandmother died, my father more then likely disposed of any old letters she may have had, because when my father died, he had only "her" photographs of "her" family relatives in Jamaica.
There are many "other" Surname's affiliated with the MOULD surname in Jamaica.  I have a lot of other relatives from there I have since discovered like GUNTER, but no one has any knowledge of the MOULD families there.
