Tracing Ghanshayam family tree Banaras
We were informed that our great great grandfather(Last name Ghanshayam) came from Banaras.
He left Banaras to immigrated to St Vincent and the Grenadines.
Something remarkable happened when he left Banaras (at least I find it uncommon)our last name changed from Ghanshayam to Gunsam.
At the moment we have family in Engelland, USA, St Vincent and the Grenadines, the Netherlands, CuraƧao and Aruba.
My question is if any one can help me trace back his family back in Banaras or in that area.
With helping me I meant giving me any useful tips how to conduct such research.
Especially tips from anyone with experience or who knows how to do good genealogy reasearch is more then welcome.
To be honest I have no clue where to begin.
