Abicou Brown was an African Prince. He left Africa and went to Trinidad. His wife was Fifin Brown also from Africa. They had four children in Trinidad. Abicou died in 1941, and Fifin died in 1936. Their children were Rosina Brown, Newton Babu Brown, Norbert Brown and Vincent Brown. If anyone remembers or have heard of the African Prince, Abicou Brown that left and went to Trinidad, or if anyone knows the family in Africa, or where in Africa they are now living, please reply.

I am also researching an African Prince who was granted his freedom in Trinidad by Queen Victoria. His name was Oscar Philip, aka, Jean Bull. i will keep an eye out for the Brown Family.

Abicou sounds like "Ibikun", in which case its Yoruba, and prob from present day Nigeria or Republic of Benin.
Obviously Brown wasnt his original last name.
