P_10433_0367 – Daniel Jamineau

D.O.B: D.O.D:

Daniel Jamineau (fl. 1687-1726), major London slave trader, almost entirely unknown, with 59 slaving voyages from London and one from Bristol between 1698 and 1712, with a wide range of co-owners. Daniel and Claude Jamineau are described by Tattersfield as having ‘an unofficial monopoly of the supply of beads in London during the period 1698-1725’. There is a discrepancy between the frequency of commercial litigation in which Claude Jamineau alone appears and the density of the slave-trading under Daniel Jamineau’s name: the two men were partners but the scope of the partnership is not yet known. Daniel Jamineau was still alive in 1726 when his brother Claude made his will but no burial record or will has been found for Daniel Jamineau himself.
