Secondary sources, supported by primary sources, describe Maurice Trent as an English merchant resident at Leith, near Edinburgh. He appears to have been a Quaker, and was active commercially from probably the 1650s. A Maurice Trent shipped sugar from Barbados to London, as mentioned in the ''Registry of the Privy Council of Scotland'' in February 1662 (?1663), and purchased land in West New Jersey in 1664, after the area had been taken from the Dutch. A separate Maurice Trent, brother of James Trent (both sons of William Trent of Inverness) moved to Philadelphia before 1681. There were also probably related Trents in Barbados (David Dobson, ''Scottish Emigration To Colonial America, 1607-1785'' (Athens, GA, 2004), pp. 52-53)</ref>//
