Notice of an impending sheriff's sale of 7 enslaved persons

About the Project

The history of enslaved persons is often difficult to uncover. Legal documents are one of the helpful sources that provide us with clues about individuals and their history. Help us transcribe the legal notice of enslaved persons Martin, Walker, Rachel, Amanda, Alice, Polly, and Addie and shed light on the stories of not just the institution of slavery, but the individual men, women, and children who helped shape America.
