1810 - ????
Foster Henry March, 'free brown', baptised aged 3 weeks with his twin sister Maria Eliza March in St Catherine, 02/07/1810.
Assumed to be one of the ten children of Mary Louisa Willis Thomas Matthews, 'free mestee'. Baptism records have been found for three of the children, but they are all listed as slave-owners in St Catherine. Most of the children spent at least some time as absentees in their childhoods, presumably in Britain.
