      I live here and I can verify that the information is 100% correct. Also I’m impressed with his research given that more than likely he’s not from the area. Jamaica is a beautiful country that is rich in culture and as such it has great potential for future growth.

    Who was Hamilton Brown?

  • @andrewDaMack
    @andrewDaMack 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hamilton Brown was an enslaver. He owned over 1000 enslaved people and was a vicious man who was against abolition. Like many enslavers, upon abolition he was compensated. If you're going to talk about the town and the person its named after, its only fair to be accurate and don't skip over significant details.

    @joeltucker5490 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    As a person from Brown's Town I think you should get your facts straight when giving information like this not all the time Google maps is correct. Also I've watched the video fully and most of the information that is given I can see that you get the information from Wikipedia and Google maps to worse combination and you weren't reading them correctly most of the vital information that you have given in one part of the video you haven't given in the next on one part your information was so incorrect I think you should know the place before giving a review or information on the place....

    • @InJamaica
      @InJamaica  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @Joel Tucker Any correction(s) from you are welcome... We have the options to make correction(s) in the video description. Don't just critic but point out exactly what is incorrect so others from/not from Brown's Town can learn from you. Also do you know you have the options to suggest your facts to Wikipedia and Google maps?.. this can greatly help for future reference.
