Hi,
My name is Richard Archer. I live in St. Peter, Barbados. My father was John Anthony Keith (Tony), my grand father Herbert Keith, who had siblings Stanley & Elenor (Nell). My great grandfather was Norman L. Archer who built and ran the Archer Pharmacy in Speightstown, St. Peter and Alpha Pharmacy in Christ Church. He lived for a time in a house called 'Newstead' in Mile & a Quarter, St. Peter, and also built a home on Darylls Road Christ Church, also called 'Newstead' I know he had a brother (name unknown) who emigrated to Jamaica, and that their father was named George. Beyond that I do not know much, but was interested to stumble across your blog. We seem to have similar backgrounds, in that we seem to have ancestors from St. Peter & St. Lucy, Barbados. Any information you might have would be greatly appreciated. By the way, where exactly is Albion Lodge?
Hi Richard,
I would like to connect with you if you are still interested in genealogy and the Archer family history. I believe we are related but this may be four generations back. Bev
I wanted to share my website with you because I think it may be of some interest to you and your visitors. I have 18 coats of arms with the surname Archer from the famous genealogist Bernard Burke's nineteenth century book, The General Armory:

I am from Texas. My father Alexander Archer was raised in Mansfield Ohio. His father Jose Archer was son to my great grandfather Ernest Archer from Douglas, Arizona.That is as how far I know. I have Family here in Texas, Ohio and pergaps Arizona and California as well.
Hi (unknown),
I don't really know of any conclusive link to my Archer line. There was an Ernest that left Barbados to work in Brooklyn, NY. He apparently was married, but his wife's name wasn't listed on his death certificate. He died in Brooklyn, Kings, NY and is buried in Evergreen Cemetery, NY. He died around age 24, in 1913, perhaps of pneumonia. Now, whether he had any children, I don't know. Good luck with your search. Let me know if there is any connection to your family in Arizona.
Hi there
I'm related to an Alexander Archer. Please can you contact me as I am hopeful it's the same person.
Thanks
Fiona (father is an Archer)
