"If a man dwells on the past, then he robs the present. But if a man ignores the past, he may rob the future. The seeds of our destiny are nurtured by the roots of our past." - Kwai Chang Caine (Kung Fu).

Auguste Agostini married Eugenia Campo.

Auguste was the son of Simon Agostini (1773-1854), who was the patriarch of the Agostinis in Trinidad. He arrived in Trinidad some time before 1797, which was the year the British took possession of Trinidad away from the Spanish.

Son of Auguste and Eugenia:


Cedar Francis Agostini (1875-1964) married Lavenia Gomez.

Children of Cedar and Lavenia:

Sedley (1905-1987), married Ena Govia (1911-1991) in 1930. Children: Sedley Jnr., Colin, Michael, Noreen, Raymond.

Eugenia Campo was a Carib Amerindian. However, it's very likely that she had Arawak ancestry. More on this later.
