Don't worry, the Plunkett-Ernle-Erle-Drax-es maintained their assets. There was even a bit of a hullabaloo, not too much, when it was discovered that Richard Plunkett-Ernle-Erle-Drax "still owns and grows sugar on the same Drax Hall Estate in Barbados that made the family's fortune. Over 200 years, 30,000 slaves died at this and the other Drax plantations, according to Professor Sir Hilary Beckles, Chair of CARICOM's Reparations Commission. 'The Drax family has done more harm and violence to the black people of Barbados than any other', he said." [1]
