Early Virginia Law, including some transcribed Henning Statues. Slave names are included with owners on some, starting in 1600's. One was very interesting a slave (name included) reported a slave rebellion and for this gain his freedom the court paid the owner I think it was 40 pounds for him and set him free. Link below.
