A native of Tahiti. Sailed to England with Captain William Bligh in HMS Providence. Died in Deptford, 4th September 1793.
Stranger with solemn step approach and know,
A fav'rite son of nature sleeps below.
From that fam'd queen of southern isles he came,
fair Otahytey, fir'd by British fame:
And Providence each deep safe wafted o'er,
Yet only gave to hail the promis'd shore;
For here could life alas! no more supply,
Than just to look around him and to die.
Edward Harwood, surgeon of the Providence.

Jabez West (6th June 1810 - 13th May 1884) was a blacksmith's son from Princes Risborough, who came to Bermondsey in the 1830s. He worked in the leather trade but became best known in the area for devoting his time to political reform and the temperance movement. He also campaigned for Southwark Park.
