The origins of the Saltoun family in Dominica, it is not Saltan!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Saltoun
She is not from Sultan but Saltoun. The name of that estate was Saltoun, a family from Scotland, UK who had plantations across the British Caribbean. But I see Dominicans calling it Saltan, they spelling it Saltan, they put it on Google as Saltan, they call the falls Saltan, and now this! Ignorance is a real shame!
