Notes

In 1810 an indenture rehearsed the background of an estate on St Vincent called Bakers, which George Maitland had mortgaged in 1803 to Nicholas Richards, Martha Baker, Joseph Baker, John Richard Baker, Martha Swinburne and Charles James to secure £16,000, of which on 31/03/1809 £13,563 was outstanding. The mortgagees are identifiable as the executor and relatives of John Baker of St Kitts (q.v.), who died in 1779. Maitland also had mortgaged 50 'negroes' in 1800 to secure a further £3000 from Coll Turner and Alexander Innes of London, which with further advances amounted to £5938 4s 6d due to William Manning and John Proctor Anderdon at 31/03/1809. The mortgagees gained possession of the estate at a Marshal's sale, and conveyed it to John Wilson Carmichael (q.v.) subject to the mortgages. The Baker family group agreed to leave their mortgage in place for another 6 years.

This estate has not been further traced. It appears separate from the Mousebank estate on St Vincent associated with John Wilson Carmichael in 1817.
