Notes

Articles of Agreement of 18/08/1786 traces the transfer by Thomas Hankey et al., assigns of Mills and Swanston, of an estate of 300 acres with 80 enslaved people known as 'Stathams, Lasticks or Augiers', originally owned by Robert Henvill of Bequia and mortgaged by him to Sherland Swanston and John Mills, to Charles John Warner with finance from Samuel Span senior.

The estate has not been traced further but might correspond to, or have been absorbed into, one of the two estates on Bequia for which Charles John Warner's son-in-laws claimed compensation in the 1830s.
