    Change “Indian” to “Tamil, possibly other Indian.”

    John Hetherington was partly of Indian descent, but I can’t tell to which degree. I know Mary Straith Anderson’s maternal grandmother was Indian.

    Ella Anna Hamer was the granddaughter of Samuel Blair Hamer, son of Guyanese planter, Joseph Hamer, and Marianne Deniant, ‘a free mestizo woman’.
