George Dunbar

???? - 1790


Biography

The enslaved people on Dunbar's estate were registered to representatives of George Dunbar between 1824 and 1832. This was probably but not certainly George Dunbar, the London merchant, dying c. 1790. Although his will is silent on property in Antigua, one of his trustees was Richard Heatley of London, who appears in the 1817 Slave Register for Dunbar's. George Dunbar was also identified as a mortgagee for £7000 in the will of Dr John Dunbar (q.v.) proved in 1798. George Dunbar's own will also left an annuity of £350 p.a. to his widow Susanna and identified William and Elizabeth Dunbar as their children.
