St. Paul's Marriages: Hayes, Gittens, Taitt, Taylor, Marshall, Prescod, Robertson, Forte, Gibson, Walton, Mark, Payne, Haynes, Otten
August 3, 2008 by grenadiangirl
Publishing a list of marriages of, I think, related people in St. Paul's, Parish of St. George's. I cannot prove all of the relationships yet as I think that most of the folks were born in Barbados (so there do not seem to be Grenadian records of them before their marriages). Where I know the relationship, I've indicated it. As you can see, Nathaniel was a popular name.
Please do let me know if any of you have leads on these folks. I have been fortunate to be able to find information on the first group of names listed and have enough for a large tree, but know almost nothing about the (possible) interrelatedness of the other couples.
Siblings
Nathaniel Taylor and Charlotte Hayes m. 1870
Daniel McLean Hayes and Caroline Prescod m. 1877
Simeon Hayes and Catherine Jane Taitt m. 1880
Gabriel Hayes and Almina Diana Taitt m. 1884

Think there is a relationship between this couple and the siblings listed above, but unsure what it is…
Nathaniel Hayes and Nancy Jane Gibson m. 1875
— -
I cannot prove it on paper yet, but am pretty sure that Almina Taitt listed above and Emma Taitt were sisters. Emma is buried with Almina's children in the Mt. Airy cemetery and seems to have lived in Almina's house for years.
Nathaniel Ford and Emma Rosa Ann Taitt m. 1890
— -
I'm not sure how this couple are connected to the Marshalls, but do know that one of their sons Elijah Evans Gittens marries Simeon Hayes daughter Helena.
Joseph Gittens and Rebecca Marshall m. 1871
— -
I don't know whether the bride here is related to the sibling Hayes mentioned above but one of Gabriel Hayes' daughers is names Christiana. Could be a coincidence but could also indicate a relation.
Mingo Bowen Forte and Christiana Hayes m. 1879
— -
Noah Sealey and Mary Ann Marshall m. 1879
David Campbell Haynes and Sarah Marshall m. 1883
Nathaniel Marshall and Ada Robertson m. 1898
