  • Notes 
    • David Pereira Mendes' father may have been Samuel Pereira Mendes, who apparently became a Jamaican national in February 1749. If this is so, it makes one wonder whether the young eight or nine year old David was also in Jamaica at that time, but there does not appear to be any proof of this one way or the other. This particular Samuel's wife's name is thought to have been Leah, who is reported by Stern to have died in Kingston, Jamaica in November 1796. There is no tombstone inscription to support this, but such lack does not necessarily preclude the possibility.
