Slave-owner on St Vincent, co-owner with John Grant of St Vincent of Wallibo estate. LBS has not traced a will or death-date for him, but he appears to have died between 1818 and 1821: he was recorded as having bought an enslaved man named Primus, a carpenter, from John Grant in 1818 but he did not appear among the surviving executors of John Grant of St Vincent when the latter's will was proved in 1821.
T71/495 f. 215 p. 427.
