Notes |
Coffee estate in Port Royal, Jamaica. Owned by Edmund Breon at the time of his death in 1792 (probably from last least 1785 - certainly he was growing coffee from at least this date). Inherited in trust by his daughter Elizabeth Susanna Breon, ownership passed to Colin MacLarty when they married at some point between 1792 and 1798. MacLarty was based in Argyll, Scotland, from at least 1803 until his death in 1835. Absentee-owned from at least 1803. |
