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
  • SY - Association Start Year
  • EA - Earliest Known Association
  • ED - Association End Date
  • EY - Association End Year
  • LA - Latest Known Association
1817 [EA] - → Owner
John Forster Marsh
1825 [EA] - → Other
Thomas Padmore senior

This may not be the correct Thomas Padmore. According to the Barrallier map of 1825, Thomas Padmore was the owner of the Bagatelle estate. But this has not yet shown up in the Slave Registers.

1832 [EA] - → Owner
Charles Saintjohn [St John] junior
