LIHOU in West Indies

Classification: Query
Surnames: Lihou
My maiden name was Lihou and I am researching my Lihou family history through my father's side of the family. He was born in Trinidad in the West Indies and the connection back to Guernsey in the Channel Islands has been difficult for me to establish. I have a few handwritten notes that are very old and of uncertain origin.

I think we are descended from Stephen George Lihou, youngest son of Thomas Lihou and Margaret Langlois, who became a sea captain and may have settled in the West Indies. He married Matilda Langlois and later ?? Gillies. Has anyone followed this line of the Lihou family?

Thank you for any help you can offer.
Jo
