When Sarah Massiah was fired from the Barbados mikveh in 1814, Mrs. Lobo became the banyadeira. The Mahamad did not record her first name, but we know that she was also a poor widow who was receiving a pension from the synagogue. Becoming the banyadeira meant she had a nice house of her own. If you look closely you can see how beautiful the Barbados mikveh was and what nice and expensive materials they used to build it.
