"Charles Worrell (ca 1770 \u2013 January 6, 1858) was a lawyer, land owner and political figure in Prince Edward Island. He represented Kings County in the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island from 1812 to 1825. Worrell died in London in 1858. He was the son of Jonathan Worrell, a land owner in Barbados. His father gave his property in Barbados to his elder sons, but also purchased land for Charles and his brother Edward on Prince Edward Island in 1803. Worrell was trained as a lawyer and first practised in England. In 1810, Charles registered as a barrister for the island's Supreme Court and came to serve as a justice of the peace, high sheriff and was a Lieutenant-Colonel in the Island Colonial militia. He served in the Island's Council from 1825 to 1836 and in the Legislative Council from 1839 to 1843. Charles and Edward became owners of Lot 41, most of Lot 39 and part of Lot 40. Becoming the land agent for Lot 42, he eventually purchased it in 1834, also acquiring Lot 43 and Lot 66. In 1838, he purchased his brother's share of their shared properties. Although his now 'estate' was generally less productive in terms of rents from tenancy, leased for agriculture, compared to other land on the island, his properties supported shipyards, sawmills and a carding mill. The Worrell Estate, at its peak in 1843, consisted of Lots 39, 41, 42, 43, 66, and large sections of Lots 38 and 40 \u2013 some 81,303 acres. In 1846, Lot 40 saw the settlement of 204 acres by six Mi'kmaq families, \"a free gift of a portion of the lands of his estate to certain Indians, and their descendants.\" When the Worrell Estate was later purchased by the Government of PEI the Mi'kmaq were moved to a grant of 189 acres on Lot 39, this becoming the Morell Reserve."@en . .
