Description

This is Volume III of the three-volume work Free  African Americans of North Carolina, Virginia, and South Carolina from the Colonial Period to About 1820. Sixth Edition,” which contains detailed genealogies of hundreds of free black families that originated in Virginia and migrated to North and/or South Carolina from the colonial period to about 1820. The families under investigation represent nearly all African Americans who were free during the colonial period in Virginia and North Carolina.
