Product Description

Jamaica’s Order of National Heroes

The Order of National Hero, the highest of the five Jamaican Orders of the Societies of Honour, is granted only to Jamaican citizens for “services of the most distinguished type” to the country. It might be given posthumously or at the time of the recipient’s retirement from active public service.

Recipients are allowed to wear the Order’s insignia and are given the style “The Right Excellent.”

They are also commemorated by a grave or monument in National Heroes Park and a plaque or shield exhibited in a major national location, such as the Institute of Jamaica. Following a recipient’s name, the title “National Hero of Jamaica” or the post-nominal initials ONH might be used.

The National Honours and Awards Act, passed by Parliament in 1969, established the Order of National Hero. Paul Bogle was also named in this act.

The Right Honorable Paul Bogle

Paul Bogle was a Jamaican Baptist deacon and campaigner who lived from 1822 to 24 October 1865. He has been dubbed a Jamaican national hero. He led the Morant Bay demonstrators in 1865, who marched for justice and equal treatment for all Jamaicans. Bogle was apprehended, prosecuted, and convicted by the colonial government (which had declared martial law) after spearheading the Morant Bay revolt, and hung in the Morant Bay courthouse on October 24, 1865.

Bogle had became friends with George William Gordon, a bi-racial landowner and fellow Baptist who served in the Assembly as one of two deputies from the parish of St. Thomas-in-the-East. Bogle was made a deacon at Stony Gut Baptist Church in 1864 thanks to Gordon’s efforts.

The Rt. Hon Marcus Garvey

Marcus Mosiah Garvey was born on August 17, 1887, in Saint Ann’s Bay, Jamaica’s Colony. As a black child who believed he was of complete African descent in colonial Jamaican culture, Garvey was ranked at the bottom of the colourist social scale. Later DNA studies indicated that he did, in fact, have some Iberian relatives. Garvey’s paternal great-grandfather was born into slavery in Jamaica before it was abolished.

Jamaica’s Only National Heroin

Nanny of the Maroons

Queen Nanny, also known as Granny Nanny or Nanny of the Maroons ONH (c. 1686 – c. 1733), was a Jamaican Maroon leader in the 18th century. She was the leader of the Windward Maroons, a group of previously enslaved Africans. In the early 18th century, the Windward Maroons, led by Nanny, waged a long-running guerrilla war against British authorities in the Colony of Jamaica, which became known as the First Maroon War.

Because of little textual evidence, what is known comes from oral history.
