NORTH CAROLINA: Bladen County (1795,1799)

Last September Nadine left a comment which included the names of slaves she had found during her research. As she doesn't blog, I am including the names in this post.

From the 1795 will of Lewis WILLIAMSON of Bladen County, North Carolina: "one negro woman named SIDNEY...one negro boy named LONDON...a negro woman SIBBYWORTH [spelling unclear]" The will indicated she was London's mother.

From the 1799 will of Moses COLEMAN of Bladen County, North Carolina: "my negro girl named KATE or KATIE...my negro man named EMPEROR."
