Slowhands,
Age of Alfred is stated as 37. He is listed as a widower at marriage so there should be a record of a previous marriage though most likely in St Kitts. Hsi father's occupation is identified as a general labourer.
The slavery/plantation link is most definitely correct as I seem to remember mention of Alfred's family "still owning a plantation" when I was a child.
The passage over states a first class cabin, which could I suppose fit with him being wealthy enough to afford if the family still ran a plantation. Arrival in 1907 would allow for him to marry in 1919 as the certificate states, and possibly to have married over here before that also, as he woul ahve been 25 on arrival.
Thanks again for you assistance. Any further information you can find would be most appreciated.
Ian.
