Jessima McNeil

Jessima Knowles (maiden name: McNeil) is one of my third-great-grandmothers. She was born c. 1845 and emigrated to the Bahamas. She may have stopped somewhere else before arriving there; common stops were Bermuda, Jamaica, and the eastern U.S. She married George Maxwell Knowles in the Bahamas on February 15, 1861.

I know that's almost nothing to work with, but I'm always hoping that with that unusual first name and unusual ending location, maybe she'll ring a bell for someone eventually.
