This is something that I personally came across and i looked into this beautiful island Barbados that a few people have Greek names As well in the Bahamas but Barbados is something else for me And I have gone a few times Someone who’s buried there is called the Greek prince of Cornwall His baptism name is Φερδινάνδος Παλαιολόγος. Ferdinand Paleologus June 1619 – 2 October 1670 a 17th century English, Greek freeholder, sugar or cotton planter and churchwardenand possibly one of the last living members of the Palaiologos dynasty (we do not know if there is any others) , which had ruled the Byzantine Empire from 1259 to its fall in 1453. Ferdinand was the fourth and youngest son of Theodore Paleologus, a Greek soldier and assassin who moved to England in the late 16th century. emigrated to Barbados seeking his fortune with relatives of his mother, who lived on the island. Ferdinand is first attested on the island in 1644 and he quickly integrated himself with its elite entourage He cultivated cotton, sugar and pineapples and was influential in the affairs of the local St. John's Parish Church, for which he became a vestryman and then a churchwarden. Ferdinand constructed a great mansion called Clifton Hall, named after the home he had lived in with his family in Cornwall. Clifton Hall, though radically changed since Ferdinand's time, remains to this day one of the largest, grandest and oldest great houses in Barbados. To this day the 3 crosses that he planted facing towards Constantinople are still standing while his tomb is facing them as well The last pictures is Clifton Hall in Barbados
