Trelawney Town, the Chief Residence of the Maroons.
Publish'd Sept. 25 1800, by John Stockdale, Piccadilly.
Engraving, platemark 200 x 260mm (8 x 10"). Fold as normal;
View in Trelawny Parish, Jamaica. The Maroons formed two distinct communities in the mountains of central Jamaica, known as ‘cockpit country’. The word ‘maroon’ derives from the Spanish ‘cìmarron’ meaning ‘wild’, and maroon communities (composed of runaway slaves and their descendants) frequently settled in areas across the Caribbean that were outside the control of European colonial powers. In 1730, in a treaty signed by the governor of Jamaica and Cudjoe, the Maroon leader, the Maroons’ land was secured in exchange for their loyalty to Britain. In the peace that followed, the Maroons were true to their word, returning runaways and helping to put down slave insurrections. Despite this, the British were always wary of the Maroons, who remained outside their control. During the revolutionary crisis of the 1790s, this fear of the Maroons resulted in Britain turning a minor confrontation into an all-out war, and many Maroons were exiled. The communities survived, however, and their descendants live in Jamaica to this day. Plate from the 1801 edition of 'The History, Civil and Commercial, of the British Colonies in the West Indies' (first edn. 1793) by the planter and politician Bryan Edwards (1743-1800). Edwards was bequeathed two estates in Trelawny parish, and led a distinguished political career in Jamaica.
For Edwards' house 'Bryan Castle' in Trelawny parish, see ref. 37208.
