Slaveholders identified in this research

Dear friends, if you have identified a slaveholder you might find it useful to see if there is any new information about your family listed below. In some cases there are mere scraps of information but my hope is that even these little pieces might help you to find your family. You can put the names in the search box above and hopefully it will take you straight to the person you are researching. When you get there, if you can add anything to the research please do so in the comments box underneath the named person, links to other research blogs or online links to historical records.
The lives of the enslaved people we remember and honour were gruelling. Their courage and fortitude is awe-inspiring. Any comments which dishonour them will be deleted immediately.
Sincerely
Martine Brennan
