14th Dec 1835 | 20 Enslaved | £1526 2s 5d
Parliamentary Papers p. 127.
T71/433 p. 2218: Thomas Finlayson registered 28 enslaved persons in 1832.
Possible problem with the figures for compensation and number of enslaved persons, which appear inconsistent. It is possible the award should show 28 enslaved people rather than 20.
