A nominal list records Africans embarked on the Brandon

📅 2 Desèmber 1849 📍 Grenada

A nominal list of liberated Africans embarked on the Brandon was transmitted on 2 December 1849. Such lists turned people into administrative entries as they were moved from Sierra Leone toward Grenada under indenture. The surviving record is useful for tracing names and forced dispersal, but it reflects the categories and priorities of colonial officials rather than the people’s own accounts. This is the date of the list, not necessarily the ship’s landing date.
