Biography

One of a large group receiving compensation for 10 enslaved people in Westmoreland Jamaica. Possibly a mistranscription of James Keating Clubley, a soldier in the East India Co., who reportedly married Eleanor or Ellenor Paddock in 1834: one of the other awardees under the same claim was John Paddock junior.

  1. James Keating Clubley was made a cornet in the Native Horse at Madras 18/07/1804. A second James Keating Clubley, who died a Colonel in 1908, was presumably the James Keating Clubley son of James Keating Clubley and Eleanor who was baptised at the Anglican Protestant Chapel Servan-sur-Mer, Ille-et-Vilaine 01/12/1836. Another James Keating Clubley, wife Anne Elizabeth, died in Madras, India, 09/05/1868.
