Photo Description

Theophilus Albert Marryshow, born on the 7th of November 1887, was a proponent for a unified West Indies. On the year of his death in 1958, Marryshow became a Senator of the newly formed Federation of the West Indies. The house pictured here on Tyrrel Street, Saint George's, Grenada originally belonged to Marryshow and was built in 1917. The University of the West Indies (UWI) purchased the house in 1964. The sign in front of the building reads, “U.W.I. Marryshow House University Centre Private Car Park.” As of 2013, Marryshow House has been the main location for the Open Campus of the University of the West Indies in Grenada.
