Notes

This group of enslaved people may have worked on Glasgow estate, owned by Charles Forbes. They had previously been registered in St Elizabeth in 1817 in the possession of Bernard M. Senior as attorney to Letitia Laird (now residing in England). See also JA1536 for Derry Hill estate; they may have later been moved to Derry Hill.
