A quiet settlement about five miles south of George Town where little has changed in decades. Century-old stone buildings line the road, and the Rolle Town Tombs — loyalist-era graves dating to the 1790s — sit in a small plot by the highway. The village is typical of Exuma's settlements: a handful of houses, a church, a few fruit trees, and an unhurried pace that makes George Town look like a metropolis.
Most of the residents share the Rolle surname, a legacy of the plantation era when freed slaves took the name of their former owner, Lord Rolle, who left his Exuma lands to his former enslaved people.
