1) I am about to start individual projects for individual or complex plantations - for the 19 largest slave owners/plantations.

2) I have started the slave county projects-- Floyd County, Kentucky.

Let's get some volunteer and expert help to divide the counties and properties!!

Very interesting Kenneth. I am short on time, but would like to help where and when I can.

I pitched in and did a few of them. ;)

They all seem to to be very closely related through marriage. At least the group I did were. I had to add a little to the tree as I found out the relationships between them.

Linda Kathleen Thompson, (c), we have stalled on these projects. I have restarted new projects.

I, too, am finding relationships between the owners and even the traders.

I recently started on the Ball Plantations (there were 25 all together) of South Carolina; and was wondering why they aren't on any list?!
