Antebellum Emancipations and Free People of Color
Two of the foremost educators in the area of African American Genealogy will present a joint lecture focused on ancestors who were emancipated before chattel slavery was finally abolished:
LaBrenda Garrett-Nelson JD, LLM, CG®, FASG will lead off with a focus on the ways in which enslaved people could be manumitted before the abolition of chattel slavery, and Dr. Deborah A. Abbott PhD will follow-up with the treatment of Free People of Color in the period leading to the Civil War.
