In 1960 the Belize Estate and Produce Company wanted to evict all villages illegally situated on their lands, often for over a hundred years. Blackman Eddy was one of these villages.
George Cadle Price of the People's United Party told them, "Do not move, we will win the elections in 1961 and we will get these lands for you all.". In March of 1961 his party won. The first thing they did was to acquire all the lands legally and paid the BEC with the hundreds of thousands they owed in land taxes.[1]

The Roaring Creek Police Station serves the Cayo District from Blackman Eddy all the way to Cotton Tree and from Camalote to Valley of Peace.[7]
