Removed middle name
A middle name was added by though without the evidence provided by a source. At this time I have removed that middle name. The contemporaneous records of his time, and the 19th century biographical works do not cite a middle name, and I would like to see a source, even of a primary source to confirm its use. — billinghurst  sDrewth  11:10, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

I can easily provide you with a source. Barry Higman, "Montpelier: A Plantation Community in Slavery and Freedom 1739-1912" (1998), p. 20. Higman is a respected academic historian on the subject of slavery in Jamaica. Feel free to reinstate the middle name "Rose".Mikesiva (talk) 11:32, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
