I have only recently made the connection to the West Indies, as my 5th g grandmother was born in St Croix but married in Edinburgh. Her parents died when she was just a child, so now trying to figure out why she and her brother ended up in Edinburgh.

I know Lucas left St Croix in the early 1770's and sold all his holdings. Lucas isn't in my direct lineage, but his branch appears to be connected to Lucas van Beverhoudt from St Thomas in the 1690's. My ancestor, Claudi, was apparently living at Lucas' estate in the late 1690's. It is thought that they were brothers.<br /><br />Thanks for the info!

Lol. While I was sorting, and going over some of my genealogical resources; I came across a brief description on Estate Coakley Bay, St. Croix. Quite a few years ago, I went on a tour of the ruins of Estate Coakley Bay. This was conducted by George Tyson our leading historian on St. Croix. Mr. Tyson always provides a narrative on the Ruins. In the narrative there is mention of Lucas v Beverhoudt as an owner of the estate bet 1760-1761. I wondered if your Lucas who founded Beverwyck, New Jersey, is one of the same or is this person of another connection. But mostly whether you were aware of this information.<br /><br />minkyadoohttp://shelleyskyline.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717482586742122982.post-4775419270126599032012-08-30T22:11:54.828-04:002012-08-30T22:11:54.828-04:00Are you related to the van Beverhoudt's from a...Are you related to the van Beverhoudt's from around the field in St.Thomas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717482586742122982.post-38859377388062693182012-08-17T17:55:34.356-04:002012-08-17T17:55:34.356-04:00Thanks Rachel.

James van Beverhoudt (brother of Ernest) came to NY in 1901 and worked for a Wall Street firm for 40 years until his death in 1947. He's related by marriage to the Bornn and Teytaud families of St. Croix:<br />http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=757&dat=19470319&id=aqJNAAAAIBAJ&sjid=ikMDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3848,1432465<br />-RachelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717482586742122982.post-70011089598366596622012-08-16T10:37:49.168-04:002012-08-16T10:37:49.168-04:00Great info, David.
