Corsbie Family Home, San Fernando (Demolished)

In the 19th century, the Corsbie clan was a prominent San Fernando family which saw many of its people holding senior civil service positions such as Henry Corsbie who was a senior warden of the now-gone Lodge Royal Trinity which stood on the site of the present San Fernando Supreme Court. He died in 1881 and was buried on its grounds. At one point, the family was so struck by misfortune that upon the death of Frederick Corsbie in Guyana in 1889, there remained but a single heir in Trinidad to carry on the name. The family lived in genteel style in this imposing , yet tasteful wooden house which was built off Coffee St. on Corsbie Lane. This building was originally erected in 1877 and refurbished and extended before 1900. The most recent prominent person to carry the Corsbie name is local raconteur, Ken Corsbie.

19世纪，科尔斯比（Corsbie）家族是圣费尔南多地区的名门望族，家族多名成员担任高级公职——其中亨利·科尔斯比（Henry Corsbie）曾任职于现已不复存在的皇家三一会馆（Lodge Royal Trinity）高级主事，该会馆原址即为如今的圣费尔南多最高法院（San Fernando Supreme Court）所在地。他于1881年逝世，并安葬于会馆旧址之内。
曾有一段时期，该家族接连遭遇不幸：1889年弗雷德里克·科尔斯比（Frederick Corsbie）在圭亚那去世后，特立尼达岛上仅余一位继承人延续家族姓氏。
该家族曾在科尔斯比巷（Corsbie Lane）毗邻咖啡街（Coffee St.）的宅邸中过着雅致体面的生活，这栋木质建筑庄重典雅且品味不俗。其始建于1877年，并于1900年前完成翻新与扩建。
如今仍以科尔斯比为姓氏的知名人物中，最具代表性的当属当地知名叙事家肯·科尔斯比（Ken Corsbie）。
