Mary Grant was born in Kingston Jamaica in 1805. Her father was a Scottish army officer and her mother a free black woman who ran a boarding house in Kingston. Mary's mother also treated people who become ill. She was a great believer in the herbal medicines. These medicines were based on the knowledge of slaves brought from Africa. This knowledge was passed on to Mary and later she also become a 'doctress'.On 10th November 1836 she married in Kingston one of her mother's resident guests Edwin Horatio Seacole but she was soon widowed.
