A list covering June 1819 was published in the December 15 issue of the St George’s Chronicle. It recorded Bob as escaping from Francis La Barrie and being captured at Woodford Estate. The original record does not establish whether Bob was visiting family, seeking refuge, or trying to leave the island; those possibilities should not be turned into facts. The route nevertheless shows that enslaved people moved across plantation boundaries and that capture records can reveal a fugitive geography.

The list records a route between estates, but not Bob’s motive or the conditions of the journey.
Bob’s list entry identifies an estate of origin and a different capture location.

The published June 1819 list records those locations, but not his motive.
