Jamaicans first began migrating to the Bahamas in significant numbers during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly after the abolition of slavery in 1834, when labor shortages arose in the Bahamas. Many Jamaicans sought better economic opportunities and were recruited for work in agriculture, construction, and as laborers in the growing industries of the Bahamas. This migration continued throughout the 20th century, contributing to the multicultural fabric of Bahamian society today.
