Byde Mill
The first evidence of the Byde Mill planation appears to have been in 1670 when Richard Bendyshe leased it to Thomas Batson: it was of 360 acres with 125 enslaved people and 8 bond (indentured) servants. In 1717 it was bequeathed by Sir Henry Bendyshe to his nephew Henry Roberts. Between 1717 and 1746 the ownership of the plantation descended through 2 generations of sons of the Roberts family. In
1746 it came into the hands of Sir Stephen Anderson of England as committee of Henry Roberts who had been declared a lunatic. Note that the plantation straddled the parishes of St. George, St. John and St. Philip.
