Sir Bethel Codrington
Sir Bethel Codrington was a prominent British landowner and plantation manager in the Caribbean during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He played a significant role in the administration of Barbuda, where he managed extensive salvage operations from shipwrecks, leveraging the island's 'right to wreck.' His family had been involved in the island's development since the early 1700s, and under his management, Barbuda became a site of economic activity through the recovery of valuable cargo from wrecked vessels, especially during wartime.
