NAIN | JUNCTION | ST.ELIZABETH | JAMAICA

Saint Elizabeth originally included most of the southwest part of the island, but Westmoreland was taken from it in 1703, and in 1814 a part of Manchester. The resulting areas were named after the wife of Sir Thomas Modyford, the first English Governor of Jamaica.
There are archeological traces of Taíno/Arawak existence in the parish, as well as of 17th-century colonial Spanish settlements. After 1655, when the English settled on the island, they concentrated on developing large sugar cane plantations with enslaved African workers. Today, buildings with 'Spanish wall' construction (masonry of limestone sand and stone between wooden frames) can still be seen in some areas.
St Elizabeth became a prosperous parish, and Black River an important seaport. In addition to shipping sugar and molasses, Black River became the centre of the logging trade. Large quantities of logwood were exported to Europe to make a blue dye very like Prussian blue, which was very popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.
St Elizabeth was the first parish to have electric power, where it was first introduced in a house called Waterloo in Black River in 1893.

Nain junction st elizabeth. The contractors who build those roads should build them with sides walk,so the pedestrian can walk on. The roads is clean and good although some parts have pot holes. Member of parliament needs to get it work on. Some places have too much bushes and trees a long side the road.needs to cut away some to lighten the places. Lots of lands in st. Elizabeth. Needs to have some developments on those lands by building some houses and business places. The citizen who has money they can have their own business. The beauty about the land its flat and near to the road side. The community would be looking so good to see that every body is being trying to do something for themselves.
