Dear GRNetters, THis is a query regarding a possible Goa connection of a quite interesting character from Guyana (Then British Guiana, even though when he was born the place was under Dutch administration) -- John Orr. According to some sources he spent time in some prison in Goa in the 1840s; he was a protestant preacher who often fought against catholicism, but i am not sure what was the reason he went to jail in Goa, if he did at all -- and if he in fact was in Goa at all. Anyone here ever heard of him? MANY THANKS Cristiana
