In 1721 the Rev. Charles Irvine of St. Philip sold to the Hon. John Sandford of St. Philip for £5599, 66 enslaved people and a plantation of 140 acres in St. Philip. (Sandford was imprisoned for embezzlement in 1721.)In 1739 John Millington mortgaged The River plantation in St. Philip to Richard Smith formerly of Barbados but by then a merchant of London. In 1757 John Millington, son of John Milli
ngton, deceased, increased the original mortgage of £10,000 to £13,000 and gave Sandford's plantation (of 169 acres) as added security. According to CreoleLinks.com, the plantation (of 169 acres) was owned in 1913 by "Hughes et al."
