Regarding the query for the surname HERON in Jamaica, I have found the following helpful for researching Jamaica:
Sojourners in the Sun, Scottish Migrants in Jamaica and the Chesapeake, 1740-1800 by Alan L Karras.

Journal of a West India Proprietor by Matthew Lewis.

The Jamaican Family Research site is well worth the minimal subscription cost. I found 49 hits for the surname HERON.
