A sugar estate in St Ann, Jamaica. Owned by John Blagrove the elder and bequeathed to his grandson John Blasgrove the younger in 1755. The estate passed to Blagrove the younger's son John Williams Blagrove in 1824. Estate accounts for Orange Valley 1756-1775 are held at the Royal Bank of Scotland Archives, 'Papers of John Blagrove (1753-1824), West Indian plantation owner, regarding estates in Jamaica', held at the Royal Bank of Scotland Archives, [accessed 01/07/2016]. The estates of Blagrove the younger appear in the Accounts Produce during his minority (1756-1774) but not after that, with the exception of 1792-1793 when presumably he was on a visit to England. However, Blagrove was largely resident in Britain from 1805 until his death in 1824; the reason for their later absence from the Accounts Produce is unclear. |
