Looking at gravestones in Kirkpatrick Juxta whilst researching the Little family, I found memoriams to two family members who died in Jamaica around 1815/16. Anyone any ideas what two young men from a Dumfriesshire farming family would be doing in Jamaica at that time?
Is it possible they just emigrated in search of a better life?
