Introduction
From 1833 to current day the population of the Falkland Islands has always been culturally diverse. With some families now able to claim eight or nine generations the following family files show the origin of some of the early families who lived, worked and often settled in the Falkland Islands.
These files are not a complete representation of families in the Falkland Islands in the 19th century but are those researched by the Archives over the last 10 years.
To protect the privacy of people who are still alive some information has been redacted.
