Letter - George Rider to John Simon…Puerto Principe, Cuba / Montego Bay, Jamacia ...12/28/1837. George was born in 1796. He is the son of John Rider and Mary Jarvis. He moved to Puerto Principe (now Camaguey, Cuba) and worked there as a merchant, making occasional trips back to the States, presumably as his business required.
