Stephen Cumberbatch (1955) of New York City Says hello
I' am a decendent of Howard Cumberbatch born in Speightstown, Barbados who married Lillian Burnett of Port of Spain, Trinidad. They went to Panama and then came to New York City in the borough of Brooklyn. They had 8 children, 1 of which is my father Stephen Cumberbatch. I was born in 1955 in NYC. I am now 51, I have 5 sons and 2 grand sons and 1 grand daughter. I am still living in NYC, the borough of Staten Island. So i have made sure to carry on the Cumberbatch name and my branch is growing as we speak. Solidarity to the Cumberbatch Family

Hello Stephen, In June, 1941 I graduated Boys High School and a classmate Stephen Cumberbatch was a friend in the same class. Our yearbook of 1941 says that Stephen lived at 328 Stuyvesant Avenue and graduated Junior High School#73. Is there a possibility that the Cumberbatch family is the same/

Stanley - I'm Stephen, "Jr." (1955) younger sister. I just came across your posting from December. Yes, our father - Stephen - did attend Boys High and graduated around that time - he would have been 17 years old in 1941. After graduation, my father went into the army serving in WWII. He subsequently went to work for the NYC Board of Education evenutally becoming a math high school teacher. He retired in the early 1980's & passed in 1991 at age 67. My brother & I would love to talk to you. We'll be in touch.

Greetings Stephen,
My great-grand father was Joseph Cumberbatch born in Barbados. He came to Trinidad with his brother, who's name we do not know. Does Joseph ring a bell to you?
