Kaieteur Falls. Guyana. South America.

Guyanese Online celebrated its 12th Anniversary in February 2022.

Guyanese Online was not established as a business website. Its main goal was to offer FREE advertising to Guyanese Associations worldwide, and to communicate with the Guyana Diaspora.

This goal has been achieved over the last 12 years, but the COVID pandemic has affected all organizations and we hope that they will recover quickly as life is normalized. The blog also features:

  • News Updates from Guyana and the Caribbean.
  • Guyanese and Caribbean Recipes.
  • Books published by Guyanese Authors.
  • Articles and commentaries by Guyanese and Caribbean writers.
  • Sponsored blogs – maintained by Guyanese Online
  • News and Commentaries + videos on current International events
  • Music and other videos.

READERS WORLDWIDE          Continue reading →

Guyana: How Did My European Ancestors Migrate to Guyana? – Rohlehr family

Henry Louis Gates Jr. and NEHGS Researcher Meaghan Siekman

Dear Professor Gates:  RE the Rohlehr family

I am a first-generation American whose family hails from Guyana (and, further back, Germany). My father has a German last name: Rohlehr (pronounced “Rohlair”). I would like to know more about my ancestors in that line who first came to Guyana from either Germany or the Netherlands. 

The story goes that during the Bismarck era in Germany, my ancestor Gertrude Rohlehr had seven sons. Six were killed in war, so she sent her remaining son, Swartz, away from Germany to save him. He made his way to New Amsterdam, Guyana, from Holland, where he ended up having two sons, Peter and John, with an unknown African woman.                    Continue reading →

GUYANA: History: Remembering Winifred Gaskin: A ‘Political Woman’ in a Man’s World

By Rosaliene Bacchus -March 12, 2023

Guyanese Politician Winifred Gaskin (1916-1977)

Radical social change is possible. I saw it unfold as a teenager growing up in Guyana, a former British colony caught in the tight grip of the rich and powerful white sugar plantation owners. Such change demands courage, persistence, and self-determination. It means pushing upstream against the flow, ignoring the voices of naysayers, and not succumbing to discouragement and hopelessness when faced with setbacks and defeats. Winifred Gaskin (1916-1977) was a woman who displayed such traits to the fullest measure.

GUYANA: The Barima-Mora Passage – video

Comments on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5ThLJ1GJvA

Guyana’s most intact mangrove ecosystems are found within a very special place in Region One, known as the Barima-Mora Passage. Beyond its rich mangrove population, this area is home to a number of IUCN red listed species, rich biodiversity, and incredible indigenous culture. This documentary aims to raise awareness to the urgent need to protect such ecosystems, that are ultimately essential to ensuring that Guyana’s people and coastal biodiversity remain resilient to the threats of climate change.
