For all those interested...

I've managed to obtain an original copy of the contract Indian indentured servants signed upon arrival to Trinidad for anyone who would like to know what terms and conditions they were required to meet. Additionally, in the next 24 hours I should hopefully have website info for anyone who may be interested in finding information about their Indian ancestors. Presently, I have a lot of info at my fingertips pertaining to the migration of Indians to Trinidad, so if you have any questions or want any information please don't hesitate to ask.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to scan the document. It's far too large and the print quality is not that great. I will, however, type the contents of this agreement in a Word document so that you may download the attachment. Bare with me, because I haven't typed it as yet, but it wil be up this afternoon.
