Dear Herman, For reasons explained earlier on this list, the Dubose and the DuBois families were two completely separate lines. I am a DuBois descendant, and have accordingly not collected data on the Dubose line. I am collecting data on slaves from my DUBOIS, HUTCHINSON, CARNE, and other lines. My DuBois line left SC for Alabama in 1820, well before the time you are speaking of. I hope you will have some luck and hear from someone who can help. Researching slave ancestry can be a daunting task, and we all owe it to each other to help one another out. Good luck and happy hunting!
