Allan Howard has been contacted by the research team for the forthcoming series on BBC with David Olusoga called “Empire”. He was asked about the role of the Newton and Lane families in the history of slavery in Barbados. He was able to pass on a great deal of information and was thanked for his contribution. Allan was also contacted to provide information about Sarah Newton for the book “Heiresses” by Miranda Kaufman and was credited for this in “Unpublished sources” for the book.
Dr Misha Ewen has now completed some research on Barbary Newton and some information provided by Kings Bromley Historians has been included. For further details, please click on the link below:
