Thomas Legall (or Legal) Yates was elected to the House of Assembly of Jamaica in 1820 for the parish of Port Royal.
[1][2] It is unclear whether this Thomas Yates is the merchant of Kingston (1784–1835), or his uncle, also Thomas Legall Yates (1752–1832).
[3] Thomas Legal Yates appears as the purser on HMS Galatea (1776) from 1785 to 1789.
