John Corrie was shown as the co-owner (with Alexander Jack) of the Carolina estate on Trinidad in 1828. In a case in the Maryland Chancery in 1830, he was said to have died in Trinidad 'leaving a considerable real and personal estate', which he had bequeathed to the children of his six brothers and sisters.
