No Dates
Attorney and slave-owner in Jamaica, and one of the Commissioners of Munro and Dickenson's charity. To date no will or death-date has been found for him by LBS: James Miller appeared as one of the magistrates for St Elizabeth as late as the 1857 Jamaica Almanac. He was probably the same man as the James Miller shown separately for other estates in St Elizabeth and Clarendon, and as attorney for the Long family on Longville and Lucky Valley.
