| Video Discription | FACTS about Kingston you probably did not know. (History of Kingston, Jamaica) History of Kingston & St. Andrew Kingston Early Beginnings The parish of Kingston is the capital of Jamaica and it is located on the south-eastern end of the island. Until 1692, the parish of Kingston did not exist. Kingston came into existence in 1692 after a massive earthquake and it’s subsequent after effects, destroyed two thirds of Port Royal and killed about three thousand inhabitants. Survivors of the earthquake fled to the Liguanea Plains only to perish from exposure and disease. As a result, two weeks after Port Royal’s destruction, the government purchased two hundred acres of land known as “Colonel Barry’s Hog Crawle,” at a cost of £1000. Up on until the sale, the land was owned by Sir William Beeston who was absent from the island at the time, therefore his attorney Nicholas Lawes, conducted the sale on Beeston behalf. #kingston #jamaica #parishes Thank you for your support https://www.paypal.me/elitejamm https://www.patreon.com/Elitejamaica Gofundme: https://www.gofund.me/1fa30811 Contact:1 876-450-9733 Thanks for watching.
