1767-Feb.-16: M. Jean-Jacques Brunet, a 40-year-old Creole enslaver residing in the Artibonite district, passed away. His death was recorded alongside that of M. de Saint-Quentin, the Curator of Vacant Successions in the southern port of Saint-Louis. These notices provided the legal community with the necessary information to begin settling estates and managing the transfer of plantation assets. The mortality of established residents in the fertile western and southern plains was a recurring feature of the colonial social landscape.
