  • Notes 
    • MARRIAGE:
      Marriage apparently occurred between January 1816 and January 1819, as the personal enslaved servant listed by Charlotte E. Sellier in her 1816 Personal Slaves Register return on 17 January 1816 was transferred to the 1819 Plantation Slavesster of Paul Langlois, filed on 28 January 1819. The "corrections" entry for Charlotte E. Sellier and folio 1274 in the 1819 Personal Slaves Register records this transfer of Marie Sainte Laodice and states that no further Triennial Return in the Personal Slaves Register was filed for Charlotte E. Sellier. This record is in The National Archives of the UK (TNA), T 71/507, page 178r, "Charlotte E. Sellier," image available in "Former British Colonial Dependencies, Slave Registers, 1813-1834," Trinidad, "1819, Personal Slaves," image 184, on Ancestry at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/1129/images/CSUK1812_133750-00183.

      LAND HOLDINGS:
      - Described as the owner of Maturine Estate in the quarter of Guanapo in the 1819 Plantation Slaves Register, and which is listed as a new plantation name (but spelled "Mathurine") in the list of such names in the register. This was a cocoa plantation. This record of it being a new plantation name is in TNA, T 71/508, page 178r, "Mathurine," image available in "Former British Colonial Dependencies, Slave Registers, 1813-1834," Trinidad, "1819, Plantation Slaves," image 182, on Ancestry at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/1129/images/CSUK1812_133749-00181.
      - Continued to hold Maturine Estate in the 1822 Plantation Slaves Register.
      - It appears that he or his widow sold Maturine Estate between 1822 and 1825. No triennial Plantation Slaves Register return was filed for Maturine Estate in 1825. Instead, the entries for it in the "corrections" section of the 1825 Plantation Slaves Register noted the transfer of the slaves from folios 1258 (on page 103v) and 1459 (on page 138r) to the entry for L'Hermitage estate at folio 1688. These entries are in TNA, T 71/513, pages 103v and 138r, "Maturine," images available in "Former British Colonial Dependencies, Slave Registers, 1813-1834," Trinidad, "1825, Plantation Slaves," images 107 and 141, on Ancestry at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/1129/images/CSUK1812_133754-00106 and https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/1129/images/CSUK1812_133754-00140.

      DEATH:
      - Alive at the time of the filing of his 1822 Plantation Slaves Register return on 12 January 1822, so died after this date.
      - Described as deceased in the 1825 Plantation Slaves Register return of his wife, filed 29 January 1825, so died before this date. This document is in TNA, T 71/513, folio 1688, "The Triennial Return of Mrs. Widow Langlois by her Father and Agent Peter F. Sellier Esqr. for the Plantation called L'Hermitage In the quarter of Guanapo," image available in "Former British Colonial Dependencies, Slave Registers, 1813-1834," Trinidad, "1825, Plantation Slaves," image 253, on Ancestry at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/1129/images/CSUK1812_133754-00252.
