    3. The lists of landowners are list of landowners with the acreage owned and the number of children, white servants and negro slaves. They are in the section entitled 'Parish Registers' but since parish registers as normally understood do not include such information (merely births, marriages and deaths) I thought it a good idea to make it clear that this information was available.

    3. The CD in question is indeed of the "Original Lists..." of John Camden Hotten, originally published in 1874. I was lucky enough to find a first edition on the internet: they do sometimes pop up. For some unknown reason though, Hotten did not include the parish register entries for all the Barbados parishes. He included only the returns for the parishes of: St. Michael, St. George, St. Andrew, Christ Church, St. James, & St. John. This was remedied by the publication in 1983 of "Omitted Chapters From Hottens..." edited by James C. Brandow, published by the Genealogical Publishing Co, of Baltimore. (It is inexpensive and readily available). Brandow's book contains the Census returns & parish registers from the 1679 census for the Parishes of St. Philip, St. Joseph, St. Lucy, St. Thomas St. John (burials) & St. Peter (as well as a number of militia rolls). The Sanders Barbados Records (Baptisms: 1637-1800) does of course include all the baptisms from that 1679 Census period, but Hotten has the advantage of including a number of burials as well, which are not in Sanders.
