    Hi, I am trying to trace back my family tree. My late grandparents were Peranakans. All I know is they were both born in Penang. My grand father was a British subject while my grandmother had both British and Malaysian nationalities.
    I will be in Penang in November.Can anyone tell me if there are any records or resources in Penang that I can refer to in my search . Thanks.
    My email address is tsunami1891@hotmail.com and my contact number is 353 086 3545047.
