The “Gentleman’s magazine” section is a digest of selections from the weekly press; the “(Trader’s) monthly intelligencer” section consists of news (foreign and domestic), vital statistics, a register of the month’s new publications, and a calendar of forthcoming trade fairs. For the family genealogist, [The Gentleman's Magazine] is an absolute treasure-trove of useful data. From the day of its inception until 1868 it published columns listing births, marriages, and deaths, enabling people throughout the English-speaking world to keep abreast of friends and relatives at home and abroad. These columns contain entries relating to Jamaica. This unique source of genealogical reference material is for the period from July – Dec 1821. There are many references to vital details about people who lived and died in Jamaica.
