John Crosman

???? - 1826


Biography

  1. Owner of several properties in Jamaica, including Decoy in St Mary. Deceased c. 1826. An unsourced genealogical site gives him as the first husband of Maria Jane Campbell, who later married Edward Pope. This fits with the slave register and almanac entries for his properties.

  2. Recorded as the executor of John Hart, former owner of Hazard, Change Hill, and Small Field plantations in a legal dispute over the debts of Hart's estate.
