The 8 January 1830 notice listed people who had escaped from Cayenne, Macouria, Mont-Sinéry, and other districts, including Bomba, Delphine, Boudiou, and François. The colonial newspaper framed them through ownership and identifying descriptions. The entries show that marronnage continued in different forms, including individual flight, family or group escape, and return to the woods after forced labor.
