The dates listed below have different categories as denoted by the letters in the brackets following each date. Here is a key to explain those letter codes:

  • SD - Association Start Date

  • EA - Earliest Known Association
  • ED - Association End Date
  • EY - Association End Year
  • LA - Latest Known Association
- 1804 [EY] → Owner
George Webbe senior of Nevis

There is no doubt that 'George Webbe the younger' of Nevis who bought land including a plot situate at Bachelors Hall in 1773 from the family of John Butler and mortgaging it to his brother-in-law Andrew Ross of Westmill was the same as the man described as George Webbe senior of Nevis 30 years later. LBS has inferred that after his death with an outside family, it passed to his cousin George Webbe of Mylor.

1773 [SY] - 1793 [EY] → Mortgage Holder
Andrew Ross of Westmill Herts.
1817 [EA] - 1825 [LA] → Owner
George Webbe of Mylor, Cornwall

Inferred to be the George Webbe owner shown in the 1817-1825 Slave Registers. The George Webbe shown for 1828-1834 might be the same man but more probably refers to George Cavell Webbe, George Webbe's natural son.

1825 [EA] - 1834 [LA] → Tenant-for-life
George Cavell Webbe

Inferred to be the same man as the George Webbe shown as owner in the Slave Registers and as tenant-for-life in the compensation records.
