When the English settled on the island in 1625, it became the first working estate on the island for tobacco, sugar and rum. It was originally owned by Sam Jefferson, the great-great-great-grandfather of US President Thomas Jefferson. Guests will see the ruins and may get a chance to visit the rum distillery to learn how sugar was converted into rum back in the day.
