Map of Jamaica depicting the mission routes taken by Scottish missionaries in the 19th century. The map lists the names of 14 parishes and churches of Scottish origin. The image also contains pictures of three church buildings and an insert map of Grand Cayman. In 1800 the Scottish Missionary Society sent three missionaries to Jamaica. Two died of yellow fever within weeks of arrival but the third became a pioneer missionary. In 1824 a second venture travelled to Jamaica by invitation of local planters to instruct their slaves.
