I remember reading an article in the British Daily Mail about 20 years ago: <span style="font-style: italic">How Bob Marley hid his White Father from the World</span>.
They were trying to imply that Marley got his genius from his white side.
As far as I know, Norval Sinclair Marley was a white Jamaican marine officer, captain and plantation overseer of English descent, who married Cedella Booker, when she was 18 years old.Comment

I posted this in your other thread but it did get lock dung:
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
<span style="font-weight: bold">Black Woman and Child: The story of Cedella Booker and Bob Marley</span>
Cedella Booker and Bob Marley
Early one Tuesday morning in February of 1945 Bob Marley was born and Cedella “Ciddy” Malcolm had come to the climax of what had been a tedious journey,and the begining of the journey of Cedella Booker and Bob Marley.
Her unborn child had caused her to be in a state of constant morning sickness and several hours of labour spanning almost two whole days.
Cedella lived in the humble community of Rhoden Hall and later moved to close by Nine Miles , St. Ann,Jamaica, for 17 years prior to giving birth to a 6 ½ pounds baby boy that would later become “the reggae king of the world”, none other than Robert Nesta Marley.
A shy, unassuming Christian young girl, who was known for her lovely singing voice, had unknowingly captured the imagination of one Captain Norval Marley. In the period of two years, now 19, she had experienced love, child bearing and a broken promise of a happy ending and a lasting marriage.
</div></div>
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
Captain Marley was a white skinned overseer of the West India Regiment. At day he was the ‘backra massa’ that brokered deals with the poorer residents concerning farming contracts or resettlement to get more land. After settling in Nine Miles he had successfully sought tenancy at the Malcolm’s family residence, popularly called the Big House. It is here that he initiated a sexual relationship with his landlord’s 17 year old daughter. His actions were reminiscent of those of his slavery days ancestors who had carried on with many innocent and not so innocent young Black girls, with most of these relationships ending with pregnancy and the social scorn of illegitimacy.
It must have been rather challenging (financially and psychologically) for a young mother who had to now face the reality of raising a boy child without a father.
She however received great assistance from her immediate and extended family members in the upbringing of young Nesta.
Her brother, aunts and especially her father Omeriah had stood by her through the toughest of times although they were disappointed by her actions.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
"He was born in Jamaica," said Norval's great nephew, Chris Marley.
He was definitely born in Jamaica and not England
I managed to catch Chris and his wife at their home in Florida. With a six-hour time difference between there and Wales, I spoke to them as they had breakfast, just before they headed off to work.
After finally tracking down a real life member of the Marley family, I was keen to find out why so many people believed Norval had a connection with north Wales.
</div></div>
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> In truth, it all seems to come down to geography and confusion over the border between north east Wales and England.
It is possible that Norval Marley was stationed in Prestatyn at some point
Norval Marley was, indeed, born in Jamaica, to an English father from Sussex.
"He travelled from Jamaica to England where he joined the British Army on 14 August 1916 at Liverpool," Chris Marley explained.
After enlisting, he ended up back in Jamaica where he met Bob Marley's mother Cedella. Bob Marley was born 6 February 1945 in a small village called Nine Miles in the parish of St Ann, Jamaica. How much contact he had with his father is unclear, but he would have been around nine or 10 when Norval died.
