Question
Are people in Bermuda of spanish decent?

Answer
Hi Gena,

Bermuda was claimed for the queen. The original settlers were English. Portuguese desent make for one third Bermudian and West Indian slaves were brought in, but since been emancipated and currently make for one third.

Please do not quote the third's I make reference too as this may not be an absolute. My point is that these three main groups make for the Bermudian culture.

Best to you,
Michael
