Robert Bostock
Robert Bostock was an English slave trader. With John McQueen, he co-owned a factory on the Saint Paul River, nowadays in Liberia.
In 1815 Governor William Maxwell of Sierra Leone sent an armed force to raid the settlement, seizing ships, merchandise and enslaved Africans from the factories there. Both Bostock and his partner McQueen were seized and taken to Sierra Leone. They were sentenced to fourteen years transportation to New South Wales by the Vice admiralty court.
