Bostock, Robert, 1784-1847.
Robert Bostock was a Liverpool trader who continued to be involved in the slave trade after its abolition by Parliament in 1807. His factory on Bunce Island was raided by H.M.S. Thais in 1813 and 233 slaves were seized. Also captured were Bostock, his partner Charles Mason, and the captain of an American slave-ship, the "Kitty," which was to have smuggled the contraband slaves to Charleston, South Carolina.
