If they are, you'll find them by looking in search trees, as advised some days ago

The info in my tree has come from within the family . I have not seen any copies of certificates as they are hard to obtain from the island. Both families are large and complex so I was hoping someone else was also looking into their past.

St Helena

The direction I am hoping for is Florella Young (Knipe) There seems to be no record of her accept marriage to Samuel . Was she perhaps a slave?

No records on familysearch

The earliest Buckley in Hazel's tree is 1860, and the most recent 1897

The earliest Young is 1795

No sign that anyone else is researching the same people, although there are a number of GR members with both surnames in their trees

Hello Hazel, whilst it's unlikely that anyone using these community boards is connected to those families there are many people on here who are more than happy to help others with their research.

If you want to give specific details of how you have come to stop (e.g. someone you're having trouble finding) then we'll see what we can do.

Look in 'search trees' for the names you know.

If anyone else is researching them, that's where you'll find the info
