BiographyNed was enslaved on the Turners Hall sugar plantation in Barbados and first appears in the records on 31 December 1759. In 1771 a man named 'Mulatto Neddy' was recorded as a driver [i.e. overseer of other enslaved people] and it is assumed that they are the same person.

A 'mulatto' was a person of mixed African and European descent. Where the mother was an enslaved African, the father was likely an enslaver or someone employed by the plantation.
