    1. [ALSUMTER] Afro-American Slave Names in Sumter County, AL
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ZS.2ADE/382 Message Board Post: I have read every page of Deed Book A and Deed Book B and the deeds beginning on the indicated pages in some way deal with slaves. Deed Book A--1,2,3,4,5,7.10,13,17,24,29,40.55,57,60,61,65,66,74,76,85,91,122,137,179,202,208,227,239,248,261,341,353,386,390,394,465,487,488,489,498,513,521 Deed Book B 3,19,20,22,69,90,91,142,157,170,231,233,274,296,304,305,308,319,347,385,405,411,437,441,443,466,503,509.521,525,537,544,547,551,561,573,487,591,592,610,642,615 These books cover the period of 1832 to about 1837. Some deeds have names and ages; others may have only names. One could order the microfilm of these two deed books (from the Mormon Church) which are on the same roll and abstract them. I have other projects that I am working on and do not have the time to abstract all of them. At some point, I will move onto Deed Books C and D and make a similar list. I hope that someone is motivated and helped by this list.
