Hi, Patricia!
No, nothing on Dominick. Kate Ross of Canada is trying to trace a William Dominick Ferrall. She thinks he might have been a brother of Mathias of St.Croix but so far nothing concrete.
Regarding my Ferrall research it could very well be I've been barking up the wrong tree. There is unsubstantiaed info that my Elizabeth "Ferrall" who married Peter Markoe of St. Croix (and 2nd Mathias Ferrall) might have been a Cunningham and a Ferrall only by her marriage to Mathias.
I believe this Peter Markoe was on British Virgin Gorda (AKA Spanishtown)as early as 1718 and as late as 1737. One of Peter's kin, Philip, was Dep Gov. there in the 1730's and one of his daughters married a James Cunningham. So I've been chasing the Cunningham link but am keeping an open eye for the Ferralls.
I assume you are familiar with http://www.british-history.ac.uk/Default.aspx. An absolutely amazing collection of British Colonial history.
Glad to see you're back online!
