Item Details

Description

[SLAVERY & ABOLITION]. Manuscript bill of sale for the enslaved woman "Nancy." Tensaw, Baldwin County, AL, 1 April 1862.

1p, 7 3/4 x 5 1/8 in. (toning, creasing at folds, scattered blue ink and later pencil notation on verso).

Enslavers "H.J. Davis" and "R.A. Davis" bill of sale noting they "Received from Jos. Silver Six Hundred Dollars in full pay and satisfaction for one Negro woman, slave for life, named Nancy...aged about twenty five years, said woman Nancy we warrant sound in body, and mind...."

The 1860 US Federal Census Slave Schedules identify a large number of men and woman with the surname Davis as enslaving individuals in Baldwin County, Alabama. H.J. Davis, likely Henry Jackson Davis (1814-?), is listed as enslaving 32 men, women, and children in 1860. His wife was Rebecca Ann Locke Davis (1825-1919), likely the "R.A. Davis" who co-signed this bill of sale.
