n the upper north side of the island. Angelo
Elwin‘s bride was a Moore and three or four of her brothers followed her from
Barbarat to Bonacca. The Moores like the Elwins came to the Islands from Belize.
Unlike other settlers Angelo Elvin had legitimate documentation deeding him the
land between Michael’s Rock and Lower end of the Bay. The deeds were granted to
him and signed by the authorities in Roatan. The Moores acquired properties
from Angelo Elwin and built their homes in what is now called Mangrove Bight.
And they were joined later by the Powerys and much later the Johnsons and the
Jacksons. Writing by Alfonzo B. Ebank
