In 1863, the year of emancipation, 77 enslaved people were registered at COPIE. This made it the #139 largest plantation in Suriname (top 36%). Their descendants — who in 1863 received a family name for the first time — are spread across the Caribbean and the global diaspora today.
Family names that frequently occur on this plantation include Kook, Kortstam, Maastricht, Messa, Olijfveld. Surnames from COPIE also appear on related plantations such as JOHAN EN MARGARETHA, suggesting historical movement of enslaved people between estates.
