Another objective of the McAdoo ONS is to identify and recognize those McAdoo heads of household who were Slavers and owned Slaves, and also research and identify those Slaves who were manumitted by their owners or emancipated by law and upon gaining freedom retained the surname McAdoo to identity themselves.
The profiles of any McAdoo who was a slave owner should be categorized with:
[[Category:McAdoo Name Study]]
[[Category:McAdooSlaver, McAdoo Name Study]]
placed immediately above the == Biography == section of their profile.
The McAdoo ONS defines a a Free Person of Color (a "FPOC") as any person designated on US Census documents as a FPOC, as black or mulatto, or as a Slave who was freed from slavery by escape, manumission by their owners, or emancipation by law.
The profiles of any McAdoo who was a FPOC and for any reason chose to adopt and use the McAdoo surname as their own should be categorized with:
[[Category:McAdoo Name Study]]
[[Category:McAdooFPOC, McAdoo Name Study]]
placed immediately above the == Biography == section of their profile.
Additionally, for FPOC, the US Black Heritage Project may have an appropriate Sticker to affix to the profile. For example: the wikitext {{African-American Sticker}} placed below the == Biography == and above the ==Sources== sections of their profile.
