Notes

Despite its size this estate has not been traced in the compensation records. The 1833 Slave Register T71/326 pp. 288-293 shows the enslaved people on Soubise being removed to Sagesse and Beausejour, other than 14 remaining: the compensation paid for these people therefore possibly appears under Grenada No. 760.
