Ninian Home (1732 - 1795), was a Scottish slave plantation owner and the Governor of Grenada during the Fédon Rebellion, a revolt against British rule led primarily by free mixed-race French-speakers that took place between 2 March 1795, and 19 June 1796. Home was captured and held hostage during the rebellion and was eventually murdered.[1]
