Henry Wilmot

???? - 1794


Biography

Son-in-law of Col. Valentine Morris (q.v.) and appearing in deeds related to the financial affairs in St Vincent and elsewhere of his brother-in-law Valentine Morris II (q.v.) apparently as trustee. His own will proved 07/08/1794 was silent on slave-property. However, it seems he himself was earlier a merchant on St Vincent: Henry Wilmott [sic] merchant late of the island of St Vincent was party to deeds of lease and release of 10 and 11/06/1768 in which he purchased from Thomas Hetherington of Barbados a town lot in Kingstown, which Henry Wilmot sold a week later to Duncan Fraser.
