John Graves (3) was born about 1718, and died 29 July 1773 in Trelawny, Jamaica, West Indies. His will was probated 2 Sept. 1773 in Spanish Town, the capital. In his will he identified his children and his kinsman John Campbell of Westmoreland. He married Bathshua Herring on 16 July 1743 in the parish of Westmoreland, Jamaica. She was born about 1720 and died after 1751. Her Herring family has been traced back to 1480 in Coventry, Warks.

John Graves owned 240 acres of land in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica in 1745. St. Elizabeth is adjacent to Westmoreland; in fact, Westmoreland was split off from St. Elizabeth in 1703. In 1763, in the parish of Trelawny, there were three 300 acre sugar cane properties owned by John Graves.

John had 2 brothers, Thomas and Joseph, both named in his will.

Madeleine Mitchell has found evidence of earlier Graves people in Jamaica. For example, a Charles Graves who had transported himself and his servants to the Island of Jamaica patented 810 acres of land in St. Elizabeth 7 June 1677. She was not able to identify the property nor find where he transported himself from. There were sons and daughters of a John and Sarah Graves baptized and buried in St. Catherine, Jamaica, between 1705 and 1712. The only child who seems to have survived was a Richard Graves, baptized 22 Dec. 1712. A Helen Graves was buried in St. Elizabeth in 1729. There were also several illegitimate children (mulatto, etc.), usually spelled Greaves, in St. Elizabeth and Westmoreland. No connection has been found between these Graves people and the John Graves of this genealogy.

It is possible that John Graves went to Jamaica via Barbados, or he could have arrived via New England. Ms. Mitchell's first Herring in Jamaica was witness to a will of his great-uncle Oxenbridge in Boston in 1674 (he was born in London). There was quite a bit of commerce and traffic between New England and Jamaica between 1670 up until the American Revolution. (R-1)

He was a carpenter of Cottage, St. Ann, Jamaica. Since no later references have been found to the members of this family, it is speculated that Julines and his family may have gone to either England or America. The market in the sugar trade had vanished by 1836, and slaves were emancipated in Jamaica in 1834, so many planters and owners left the island around this time. (R-1)
