Nicka,

I studied abroad in Cameroon during college, and lived with a Bamileke family during my stay. From firsthand experience, I can attest to the Bamileke reputation as a rich and proud culture, known for their industriousness and hospitality. I loved every minute of the time I spent with my homestay family and cherish the memories of my time spent with them.

I am truly impressed with the efforts you have undertaken with your genealogical research and the publishing of this information-rich blog. It is a wonderful endeavor which will assuredly encourage and enable others to more fully discover their African heritage. Although separated by centuries and the Atlantic Ocean, it would seem that your Bamileke roots run quite deep.

That is absolutely amazing to have the 100% match to a tribe from Cameroon. And then to use the slave database to seek a potential ship! I look forward to hearing more.
