Slaves of Robert F. W. Allston, South Carolina

Slaves of Robert F. W. Allston, South Carolina

Contents

Background

Robert F. W. Allston (1801-1864) was a slaveholder who owned several plantations in Georgetown County, South Carolina.

Mortgage

In 1846 Allston mortgaged 100 enslaved persons to George Austin Multrie of Ashton Hall (in England) for a bond of $100,000.[1]

On 17 Mar 1855 Robert F. W. Allston mortgaged 12 enslaved persons to James Tupper, Master in Equity.[2]

Probate Inventory

At his death in 1864 the enslaved were named in Allston's probate inventory.[3]

This list was transcribed as found in the probate papers, with the spelling found in the papers. There was a number at every 5th person, ie: (No.5)Joe, which has been included here. This was in the papers and helped with counting the enslaved.

A single number after a name denotes the persons with the same name, ie: Mary(1), Mary(2), Mary(3), and so on. There are actually 13 persons named Mary or Mary Ann on this list to which we do not know their last name at birth. So to distinguish each one from the other we add a number with their name. There were 7 persons named Maria on this list as well. They are different from the persons named Mary. The names are numbered so a not to be merged with another person of the same name.

As this list is very long, 590 enslaved persons. To find the name you are looking for press CTRL-F and type the name in the "find" box.
