Sold his estate in Antigua to 'John Hyndman' before 1816, according to his will. John Hyndman has not yet been identified with confidence. The estate was shown against Robert Hyndman in the Slave Registers.

1815 [EA] - 1815 [LA] → Buyer

Patrick Kirwan of Antigua had agreed to buy Richmond and Chapman's & Howard's estates in Antigua from the assignees of John Henderson and Archibald Neilson (trading as Tod and Co.) in 1815. It appears that the transaction was not effected. Compensation for the Richmond and Howard's estate in the 1830s went mainly to the mortgagee Nathaniel Snell Chauncy.
