This book sort of evolved from there and now contains genealogical information of all families from which some member has touched the family of Anil and Anne Ferris. I also started getting a lot of information on families that did not relate to ours in any way and also families that were not Mangalorean which I have also included. Currently I have over 17800 individuals in my database spanning 21 generations and are 1200+ different last names. If anyone finds their name and would like a copy of their ancestry please give me your name/parent's name and email address. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~aferris/intro.htm VIDEOVOLUNTEERS, VISUAL NEWS AND UPDATES FROM GOA: #GoaAgainstCoal: Protect Goa from Becoming a Coal Hub. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-ROOVzLTOY MALPRACTICES AT Goa Medical College puts patients in danger (2013) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MvnhmShnJM TRADITIONAL FARMING SEEKS MARKET IN GOA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkehSZzWAEs THE GREEN GUARDIANS OF GOA: A CITIZENS' MOVEMENT AGAINST A BREWERY IN GOA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nhqz1UVhW_0 VIDEO VOLUNTEERS 11, NORTH GOA , GOA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F64W0eibWA0 CARVING ON LATERITE STONE IN GOA Report by Devidas Gaonkar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMVGxDjntcI ABOUT VIDEO VOLUNTEERS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYsFHvHbXe4&t=1s KONKANI COURSE IN GOA: Thomas Stephens Konknni Kendr at Alto Porvorim (Bardez) will conduct half day Konknni Crash Course for beginners in Devnagiri and Romi script from July 17, 2017 to August 11, 2017.
