The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the southernmost island in the Caribbean archipelago. Located just off the north-eastern coast of the South America mainland, the twin island Republic is home to international greats such as Miss Universe 1998, Wendy Fitzwilliam; Cricket Legend, Brian Charles Lara; and Carnival, the Greatest Show on Earth. The larger of the two islands, Trinidad, has a boot-like shape, measures 37 miles (80km) by 50 miles (60 km), and is noted for having an ecological and geographical diversity that is unmatched in the region.
The capital city, Port of Spain, is the business centre of the Caribbean, housing the headquarters for a number of local businesses, a myriad of restaurants and nightlife entertainment like no other. The sister isle of Tobago is a stark contrast to Trinidad. Considerably smaller in size, Tobago is well-known for its coral reefs, pristine blue waters and white sandy beaches,the smaller island is perfect for leisure activities and an immersive experience with nature. An abundance of natural reserves in oil and natural gas has made significant contributions to the strength of the Trinidad & Tobago economy—making it one of the strongest economies in the region.

5 Reviews on “Mystery Tombstone, Black Rock, Trinidad and Tobago”
I visited so many graves while in Trinidad and Tobago, but this one was one of the saddest places. This was a story of a young woman who died very young during child birth. The place is famous perhaps for the tombstone writings and the tragic destiny of the woman.
I simply love mysteries. This tombstone says “She was a mother without knowing it, and a wife without letting her husband know it; except by her kind indulgences to him”. Mysterious, right?
There are some theories, but non of them proven.Some say she was black slave in a romance with a white slave master, which was taboo back then. Other theory tells she gave birth while unconscious and the child was hidden from her. Whatever happened, it certainly is interesting.
A mysterious place for people who love some spiced up stories. My wife and I visited the tomb and read the short story on the headstone. It was a sad life of a woman who died shortly after she delivered a child. I’m not a fan of visiting tombstones no matter how popular they are, but this was rather serene place to be.
I was told that this grave puzzles generations of Tobagonians and I had to visit. Interesting writing, but nothing special for us tourists.
This is a very special and respected site for the people of Tobago. I visited it, the story is really heartbreaking, but don’t expect anything dramatic. It’s just a tomb of a young woman who died during childbirth.
