Rare list found that names N. C. slaves WILLIAM L. HOLMES Associated Press RALEIGH - A renegade census taker charged with recording the population of a rural county in 1860 left behind a rare record of slave names. The find by a state archivist researching his family background stunned historians and genealogists who routinely find slaves listed only by gender, age and color -- black or mulatto. Listing the names of slaves violated census regulations of the time. The handwritten Camden County record includes the first names of the slaves owned by each family. Under the entry for farmer A.P. Cherry, for example, Bell listed the names of 16 slaves -- ranging from 55-year-old Moses to 3-month-old Enoch. The letter "S" is written beside each name on the 19-inch-by-15-inch yellowed ledger paper, which has the header "Free Inhabitants." The names are not listed in the official federal index of the 1860 Census. "We see a lot of things here at the archives, but there are very few things that make us stop," said Earl Ijames, an archivist for the state Department of Cultural Resources.
