From: Gillespie, Richard <rgillespie@towson.edu> Is it possible that Poincy is referring to the "Swiss?" In 1771 a group of maroons (including both blacks and mulattos) aided the mulattos in Port-au-Prince in their effort to gain the rights of citizenship. Whoops! Typing error. The date should have been 1791, not 1771. Sorry. Dick Gillespie
