Associated Estates (3)

The dates listed below have different categories as denoted by the letters in the brackets following each date. Here is a key to explain those letter codes:

  • SD - Association Start Date
  • SY - Association Start Year
  • EA - Earliest Known Association
  • ED - Association End Date
  • EY - Association End Year
  • LA - Latest Known Association
1832 [EA] - 1834 [LA] → Owner

It is possible that the person returning in 1832 was Benjamin Ifill the younger rather than Ifill senior.

1817 [EA] - 1826 [LA] → Owner
1817 [EA] - → Owner

It is not clear whether it is the father or son who was the owner and returned for the Slave Registers.
