If Your Ancestors Were Enslaved In DC, Maryland, Or Louisiana, Then This Site May Help You Locate Them

[Rollie Forbes]

I found this website which has links to bills of sale & logs of enslaved Black people who were traded by the Jesuits in Washington, DC. If your ancestor(s) were enslaved in DC, Maryland, or Louisiana, then you may be able to find them on the site below. Needless to say, this already valuable information will be vital if lineage-based reparations are approved in your state.
I hope this helps some of you!

My paternal grand's family is from Maryland. Never met any of them but it might be nice to.

I hope you're able to connect with that side of your family one day.

How far back do the records go?

How far back do the records go?

Most of the records go back to at least 1838.
