Margaret Still Mavor

1793 - 1879


Biography

Possibly but not certainly a slave-owner as well as landowner in Jamaica. In 1829 she was transferee of 'land etc.' at Morant Bay to offset a debt owed to her by Burrage Davenport (q.v.), when she was of Brightelmstone. She died formerly of the Crescent Kensington but late of 7 Marlborough Street Chelsea in 1879 leaving £200. She was the daughter of John Mavor, inferred to have been John Mavor senior (q.v.), in whose will she appears as Margaret Hill Mavor.
