from Gleaner, March 2, 1907
Victims of the Earthquake, January 14, 1907
An alphabetical List of the Dead-Admissions to Hospital-Names of Patients who Died After Being admitted. (Compiled for the Gleaner)

Legend
Death list: Those who died during the earthquake
Deaths in Hospital: Those who died after being admitted to the Kingston Public Hospital
Treated in Public Hospital: Those treated in the Kingston Public Hospital.
Treated at Spanish Town: Those injured and treated in Spanish Town Hospital
Injured at Caymanas/Passage Fort: Treated at Spanish Town

The Gleaner also says - In addition to the dead, "there were several cases which died during the first twenty four hours that it was impossible to obtain any record of".

On March 2, 1907 some treated at Spanish Town were still in hospital.

The cases where "burns" were found under Injured at Caymanas/Passage Fort was due to the chimney of the Caymanas Estate falling through the roof into the clarifiers.
