Keffer, the following information is about photographs taken at Wakenaam in September 1963. If you or others can assist to make contact with the families, I will make the photos available to them, at no cost.

I also have a large collection  of photos  of Lilboy Hitoo Ram family  from Wackeening, Line 2,21 Dutch Guiana taken in the 1960s, but lost contact. I believe this was a sugar estate. This include photos of the radio station building and  announcers in Nickerie, that broadcast Indian music to Guyana.
