Slavery, Appendix to Monograph 1

Slavery information from Boyd County Kentucky Monographs 1 continued.

by Teresa Martin Klaiber

 Because of the Pandemic, I wish to share some of my past publications, as a gift. Hopefully it will occupy some time as we all stay at home.  Boyd County Kentucky Monographs I was published in 2004.    I will try to share more chapters in the next few days.  These include several more appendix, articles, and county records concerning slaves. Because it is a converted pdf there are a few line issues and errors which I have corrected where possible.

Appendix B BOYD COUNTY, KENTUCKY TAX LIST SHOWING SLAVE OWNERSHIP 1860-1865 The tax lists in Kentucky counties reflect the sentiment surrounding the Civil War. From 1860 through 1865 columns included slaves over age 16 and total slaves. In 1866 the column reading "Slaves" was marked out and the word "Dogs" written in the first column while the 2nd was relabeled "Sheep killed by dogs." If another county is listed beside the owner, he has holdings in both counties. Columns reflect year; over 16 and total slaves. James Bartram          1862 2-6 W.
