Parliamentary Papers show Virgin Islands claim nos. 231 and 232 combined in terms of compensation (given as total of 拢234 17s 9d) but separate in terms of numbers of enslaved persons. Neither number of enslaved persons ties to the compensation amount. T71/883: makes awards clear, and shows Matthew Richardson of Tortola as assignee of Burrows and Nottage, who were creditors of Ann Stobo and others, executed on 08/07/1830, and assigned on 11/07/1831.
