I am researching this unusual surname,
it is always just outside my tree, but never
very far away. I am also seeking Bent,
Barnet, Falconer, Gordon, Hamilton, Staple
and Myers. If you have relations with any
of these surnames and connections to
St Elizabeth, Jamaica - then please reply to
this forum.

My great, great grand father was called Stephen Ebanks. He was originally suppose to have come from Scotland.
I am trying to compile a database for personal use, of as many as possible family members who have descended from him.
He lived and died in Barbary Hall, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. He had children called Ellen(Bent), Stephen jnr, Frances (Levy),
(Emma), (Dove), (Pigeon), (Birdie). I am trying to trace Stephen snr back to Scotland. His first wife was called Ellen.
His daughter Ellen married a Edward Bent. A couple of their children married or lived with people surnamed Myers.

Hello J.G.W.,

I've read your messages on this site and Geneology.com. You seem to know a bit more about the Ebanks family history. I may not have much more to add, but here's what I know; my father's family is from St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. His father's name was James and his mother's name was Ida. I've heard that my grandfather was half white, but through a history book I bought in Jamaica the area should have German descendents. I know the name is Scottish. My father has sisters named Linda, Lucy, Carmen, Ula, Enid and others-about half living throughout the U.S. I have a copy of the Jamaican directory listing all the Ebanks. If you want it, tell me how to send it. Please keep me informed with what you find out. Thanks.
