There are a few newspaper reports in 1811 mentioning David Arbarbanel Lindo and the West Indies.  I can't read them to see what they say

he is noted on Maria Elizabeth's marriage certificate as wine merchant. However, on the census entries where he will have given the information, he is a wine cellarman.

There are many articles at BNA mentioning the name Lindo in the Barbados Mercury – 14 in 1780-89 alone. Names that I see in that period are Abraham, David,  and several for Messrs Lindo and Belinsante, (who seem to be Abraham Lindo and Sarah Belinsante?). The articles are mostly concerned with land sales and slaves, for example:

Barbados Mercury, 8 November 1783
Quote
ALL persons whatever, are hereby forewarned and desired not to hire or employ one or any of the following slaves, to wit, Sam Thorne, Johnny Parsons, Tommy Parsons, Quaw, Tom, Joe and Coyer, mulatto and Negro carpenters; Dick, Jefferey, Sussex, Sammy, Richard and Sampson, negro masons; Ned and Charles, negro glaziers and painters; Whitsuntide and Polidore, negro coopers; without an agreement made with the subscriber, Mr Griffin Bascomb, or any other chief overseer upon his plantation, or Mr David Lindo, in Bridgetown; as the law will otherwise be enforced against employees contradictory to this advertisement.
Abraham Lindo, Junior. November 1

Elias Lindo's Jewish firm Lindo and Noble had a business community established on St. Eustatius and Barbados in the late 18th century.

The book Jews, Slaves and the Slave Trade by Eli Faber, 1998,  has a fair bit of detail about the Lindo slave traders. It is available at archive.org
