This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Free Negro in North Carolina, And, Some Colonial History of Craven County The most pathetic figure in North Carolina prior to the Civil War was the free negro. Hedged about with social and legal re strictions, he ever remained an anomaly in the social and polit ical life of the State. The origin of this class of people may be attributed to many sources, the most common of which are (1) cohabitation of white women and negro men, (2) intermarriage of blacks and whites, (3) manumission, (4) military service in the Revolution, and (5) immigration from adjoining States. As early as 17232 many free negroes, mulattoes and persons of mixed blood had moved into the Province and had intermarried with the white inhabi tants in contempt of the acts and laws in those cases pro vided. In the year 1715 in order to discourage intermarriage between white women and negro men, a penalty of 50 was imposed upon the' contracting parties, while clergymen and jus tices of peace were forbidden to celebrate such marriage under a like penalty.3 However regrettable it may be, it is certain that there were a few disreputable white women who had illegitimate children by negro men, and such children inherited the legal status of the mother. The laws of 17154 take cognizance of this fact by imposing a penalty on any white woman whether bond or free, who shall have a bastard child by any negro, mulatto or Indian.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The James Sprunt Historical Publications, 1920, Vol. 17: The Free Negro in North Carolina; Some Colonial History of Craven County Many broad-minded men in the Convention saw and pointed out the injustice of depriving the free negro of the franchise when he possessed the same property and other qualifications required of other citizens,56 and to correct this injustice amendments were Offered which excepted the property-owning class from the general Operation of the law disfranchising free negroes. The amendments were defeated by a small majority. In the main, we may say that the colored voter was disfranchised on grounds of expedience rather than upon the grounds of abstract right.

Book excerpt: Waterways, including the Neuse and Trent Rivers, have shaped the history, industry, and culture of Eastern North Carolina's Craven County. With pre-colonial beginnings as home to Native Americans of different nations, this county became a center for royal government and a genteel destination after Baron Christof de Graffenreid risked his fortune to create the permanent settlement of New Bern. After redefining itself time and time again, Craven County has now emerged as a modern community without losing a drop of its original ambience. The charm of Craven County has been enjoyed not only by North Carolinians, but also by the English during the Revolutionary War, the Union during the Civil War, merchants visiting for trade, and well-to-do hunters who came for the wildlife. Within these pages, readers will discover the landscape that has for centuries surrounded locals and visitors alike with unequaled beauty. This volume uncovers the county as it once was, a contrast between the sophistication of the city once dubbed the "Athens of North Carolina" and the pastoral quality of life in the rural farmlands and hunting clubs. Longtime residents will no doubt recognize scenes in these vintage photographs that show landmarks and views of the waterfront from times past, while those new to the area will delight in seeing their home as it once was.

Book Synopsis North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885 by : Warren Eugene Milteer Jr.
Download or read book North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885 written by Warren Eugene Milteer Jr. and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885, Warren Eugene Milteer Jr. examines the lives of free persons categorized by their communities as “negroes,” “mulattoes,” “mustees,” “Indians,” “mixed-bloods,” or simply “free people of color.” From the colonial period through Reconstruction, lawmakers passed legislation that curbed the rights and privileges of these non-enslaved residents, from prohibiting their testimony against whites to barring them from the ballot box. While such laws suggest that most white North Carolinians desired to limit the freedoms and civil liberties enjoyed by free people of color, Milteer reveals that the two groups often interacted—praying together, working the same land, and occasionally sharing households and starting families. Some free people of color also rose to prominence in their communities, becoming successful businesspeople and winning the respect of their white neighbors. Milteer’s innovative study moves beyond depictions of the American South as a region controlled by a strict racial hierarchy. He contends that although North Carolinians frequently sorted themselves into races imbued with legal and social entitlements—with whites placing themselves above persons of color—those efforts regularly clashed with their concurrent recognition of class, gender, kinship, and occupational distinctions. Whites often determined the position of free nonwhites by designating them as either valuable or expendable members of society. In early North Carolina, free people of color of certain statuses enjoyed access to institutions unavailable even to some whites. Prior to 1835, for instance, some free men of color possessed the right to vote while the law disenfranchised all women, white and nonwhite included. North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885 demonstrates that conceptions of race were complex and fluid, defying easy characterization. Despite the reductive labels often assigned to them by whites, free people of color in the state emerged from an array of backgrounds, lived widely varied lives, and created distinct cultures—all of which, Milteer suggests, allowed them to adjust to and counter ever-evolving forms of racial discrimination.
