| | | | British East India Company: Encyclopedia II - History of Saint Helena - British East India Company The British East India Company appropriated the island immediately after the departure of the Dutch, and they were confirmed in possession by a clause in their charter of 1661.
The company built a fort (1658), named "Jamestown" after the Duke of York (later James II), and established a garrison on the island. In 1673 the Dutch succeeded in obtaining possession, but were ejected after a few months' occupation. Since that date St Helena has been in the undisturbed possession of Great Britain, though in 1706, two ships anchored off James ...
