JAMAICA COUNTRYSIDE TOUR ELIM COMMUNITY ST.ELIZABETH | WHERE YOU CAN SEE A OLD RICE MILL

#FireREID St Elizabeth is one of Jamaica’s oldest parishes, having been among the second group of parishes which were in existence by 1671, following closely on the first batch which had been created by the Jamaican Assembly in 1664. The 1664 pioneering parishes were St Thomas, St David, St Andrew, St John, Clarendon, Port Royal and St Catherine. A 1671 Map of Jamaica, produced as a result of a survey of the island ordered by Governor Sir Thomas Modyford, showed St Elizabeth to be among the second group, which also included St George, St Mary, St Ann and St James. Before 1703, St Elizabeth was extremely large, covering most of western Jamaica, including present-day Westmoreland. As will be seen in a later section, changes to the boundaries of the parish began in 1703 and ended in 1814, reducing St Elizabeth to its present size. Even with these reductions, St Elizabeth remains today as Jamaica’s second largest parish, with an area of 1,212.4 square kilometres behind St Ann, the largest parish, with an area of 1,212.6 square kilometres.Reid#TrueJamaicanVibes PAYPAL ME to support CONTENT /TRAVEL for features: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=FZUTYMK3ALPBC FIRE REID STORE https://real-jamaican-vibes.creator-spring.com SOCIAL MEDIA: *FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/FIRE-REID-True-Jamacian-Vibes-111798097415717/ *INSTAGRAM: rogerreid3868 *EMAIL: rogerreid2010@gmail.com I am Fire Reid.
