P_10433_1823 – Mason
Born: Unknown
Died: Unknown
‘Mason’, either alone or alongside unnamed others, was shown as the owner or co-owner of nine slaving voyages from London between 1764 and 1784, with a cluster of six between 1764 and 1767, one in 1769 and two in 1782-84. It seems likely that many of these voyages were associated with Kender Mason (q.v.), active as a slave-factor in Dominica in the late 1760s and early 1770s in conjunction with Lovell, Morson & Co.
