Hello List, I am looking for resources in which I can get information about (af-amer.) Thomas and Cora KNIGHT. They were enumerated in the 1870 and 1880 census in the Sparta Township with a daughter named Maggie. Are there any -Tax lists -Voters lists -Freedmens labor contracts -Agricultural schedules -etc. For Sparta ca. 1870 - 1880? Thomas and Cora were living next door to a white man named "William Luois". Maybe Thomas was a sharecropper for this man? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---Karmella __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Good Morning Karmella,My name is Vanessa Jones. I would suggest to you to look up or have someone look up old deeds. If they were slaves they would have been listed as property. Also, do you know the date of birth or the date of death of either Thomas or Cora? If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.Vanessa-van62a@yahoo.com--- Karmella Haynes wrote:> Hello List,> > I am looking for resources in which I can get> information about (af-amer.)
