Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the earliest decades of Virginia history, some men and women who arrived in the New World as slaves achieved freedom and formed a stable community on the Eastern shore. Holding their own with white neighbors for much of the 17th century, these free blacks purchased freedom for family members, amassed property, established plantations, and acquired laborers. T.H. Breen and Stephen Innes reconstruct a community in which ownership of property was as significant as skin color in structuring social relations. Why this model of social interaction in race relations did not survive makes this a critical and urgent work of history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before 1670 position of African immigrants coming into the Eastern Shore of Virginia was not unlike that of most whites; they were "in bondage." Although in the case of the Africans the bondage had not set time-limit, and was thus in fact slavery, they were "very often able to purchase their freedom (...) acquire land, marry, have families and live an existence not unlike the freed white indentured servant." After 1670, however, a move began "to discard indentured servitude and have slavery as the only method to supply the work force."

Book excerpt: "'Free Blacks of Accomack County, Virginia' is a happy by-product of Kirk Mariner's meticulous scholarship. In researching his ground-breaking 'Slave and Free on Virginia's Eastern Shore from the Revolution to the Civil War,' Mariner combed antebellum court order books, wills and inventories, federal censuses, newspapers, manuscripts, and other sources, all the while taking the time to note every free black who appeared in the record. The result is a list of more than 10,000 names. Each entry in the list provides a citation to the source document and a brief summary of why the name appeared in the document." - back cover.
Book Synopsis The Free Negro in Virginia 1619-1865 by : John H. Russell
Download or read book The Free Negro in Virginia 1619-1865 written by John H. Russell and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is one of the least commonly known facts about the Civil War: there were many, many free negroes living in slaveholding states before the Emancipation Proclamation. This monograph on that surprising reality, originally published in 1913, draws on such firsthand documents as court records, contemporary literature and newspaper accounts, and other sources to create the first such portrait of this nearly forgotten chapter of African-American history. From the various origins of the "free negro" classes to their legal and social statuses-regarding everything from their right of travel to their relationship with their enslaved fellows-this "should supply some of the facts upon which the history of the negro race in the United States must be based," wrote author JOHN HENDERSON RUSSELL (b. 1884) in his preface.

Book Synopsis Hoopers Island's Changing Face by : Jacqueline Simmons Hedberg
Download or read book Hoopers Island's Changing Face written by Jacqueline Simmons Hedberg and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-30 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel back to Hoopers Island's beginnings in the 1600s and discover how much different it is today. One of the oldest settlements in Maryland is a small tidewater community on the Eastern Shore named Hoopers Island. Land was patented there in 1659, and families who owned the original plantations have continued to reside there for generations. Economic changes in the 18th century contributed to both isolation and a unique style of life. By the late 19th century, farmers had turned to the sea to make their living and the community became known for its seafood. Island watermen continue to harvest the products of the Chesapeake, and local factories deliver seafood daily throughout the region. Hoopers Island today, however, has a different look than it did even 50 years ago. The high school has been transformed into a fine restaurant, and an old marine railway has become a modern boatyard and marina. While the native population has declined, others have retired to the area, and the island is becoming a vacation destination.
