The Migration from Surinam to Jamaica. 169 



Thomas Chambers, John Chambers, Richard Chambers and Richard 

 Dunn took up land " above the Surinam Quarters," and Thomas Gamboll 

 patented three hundred acres near Green Island. These were probably 

 in additional to the original grants at Surinam Quarters, which are not 

 recorded. 



In July, 1673, Captain Rendar patented 1,500 acres in Clarendon 

 " at a place commonly called Porus." 



By his will dated the 3rd of June, 1676, he, being a widower, left to 

 his daughter Elizabeth all his estate, real and personal. He appointed 

 his " indulgent mother Mrs. Dorothy Wale the sole executrix in trust for 

 my poore child." If his daughter did not attain years of discretion, or 

 marry everything was to go to his mother. 



In January, 1675-6, Vaughan wrote home "those who removed 

 from Surinam have a considerable addition to us, most of them well 

 settled and exceedingly pleased with the island." 



In June, 1676, Cranfield asked that help might be given to Pringall 

 and Mackintosh, above alluded to, to remove from Surinam, reported that 

 Rowland Simpson, who was the cause of several Englishmen not being 

 able to leave Surinam and who had enriched himself at the expense of 

 his Majesty, owed Andrew Clifford £240 " for the want of which he and 

 his family are now miserable in Jamaica.'"
