British Guiana (now Guyana) Golf Clubs
The English had many clubs and associations during their tenure in the colony. The Georgetown Golf Club was one of them. Nicola MacIntyre has generously shared photos of the club members, along with a transcription of the names which had been written on the back of the photos.
If you have an ancestor in one of the photos and would like a full size digital copy which is large enough to see the faces for recognition clearly,, please email to this site, and we your request will be forwarded to Nicola. Our many thanks to Nicola !
