An article in The Nassau Guardian reported that Franklyn Wilson is [yet again] at the heart of a land dispute. Wilson, also known as “Snake” – a nickname he <\/em>very likely <\/em>earned as a result of his often questionable dealings – is no stranger to such disputes and scandals.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Nassau Guardian:<\/em> A dispute has erupted in South Eleuthera over the ownership of 2,000 acres of land, which the descendants of slaves claim as their birthright.<\/p>\n

Franklyn Wilson, chairman and director of Eleuthera Properties Ltd., which is listed as the petitioner in the matter, during cross-examination said that he had never heard the claim that the 2,086.24 acres of land was willed to the descendants of the slaves of Robert and Ann Miller.<\/p>\n

The quieting action has been before the Supreme Court for two weeks.<\/p>\n

Justice Claire Hepburn is hearing the case.<\/p>\n

Eleuthera Properties Ltd. bought the property from South Eleuthera Properties Ltd. in 1988.<\/p>\n

Nearly 600 people from South Eleuthera, who claim the property belongs to them, have filed legal action.<\/p>\n

Attorneys from McKinney, Bancroft and Hughes represent the Bannerman Town, Millers, John Millers and Eleuthera Association, which includes some 500 members.<\/p>\n

The property, which includes the Cotton Bay development, is located in the settlements of Wemyss Bight and Millers on Eleuthera.<\/p>\n
