Robert Colhoun
Slave-owner and merchant of St Kitts. Together with other St Kitts merchants, he owned the Tankerville, a privateer, in 1758. The following year the Tankerville made a slaving voyage under the same commander to Cape Coast Castle and Basse-Terre for which no ownership information is shown in TASTDB but which can reasonably be inferred to have been owned by Robert Colhoun et al.
