This was one of three estates (with Duquesne and Grosse Pointe) confiscated by the British government from Grenadian rebels c. 1797. Grosse Pointe appears to have been discontinued as an estate after 1820, and the enslaved people redistributed to Duquesne and Bon Air, which were retained until the eve of Emancipation. K. J.

Grenadian Rebels, 1796-1831', <em>Journal of the Canadian Historical Association - Revue de la Societe historique du Canada</em>, vol. 22, no 2 (2011), pp. 1-29.
