The wing-like arch were the lights put up specially on the post for the visit of Emperor Haille Selassie 1 in that very same year.

Your folks are standing on what is now Sam Sharpe Square, anational hero and former slave turned Baptist minister who led a rebellion in the 1800s.

There are no markets now or ever in halfway tree.
There are markets in cross roads, constant spring And papine.
But none within a mile halfway tree vicinity.

Adding insult to injury, the Ford Anglia`s backseat windows were fixed shut, unable to wine down but perhaps able to push outwards 3 inches.

Re: 1966 Jamaica

Roots, please post more, especially ones with signs that could give us clues as to where.
Saw a ad in one of the Turtle Inn pic, Albany King size...cigarettes, which is now an obsolete brand.

You have a treasure thanks to your parents. Are they still alive?

Re: 1966 Jamaica

For some reason, this picture induces the following song to start play in my head:
<span style="font-style: italic">We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads!
We'll share the shelter of my single bed;
We'll share the same room with Jah provide the bread.
We'll share the shelter of my single bed </span>
