The Cornwall estate was often associated economically and in ownership with the nearby Cinnamon Hill estate and great house, both being bequeathed to Samuel Moulton Barrett (paternal uncle of Elizabeth Barrett Browning) upon his 21st birthday and then sold together in 1878 to George Robertson. Lacking a great house, Cornwall was comparatively smaller than its Cinnamon Hill counterpart and produced sugar, rum, and, occasionally, cattle. Its population of enslaved laborers was smaller, as well, rarely exceeding 200 people.
