Creating a biography of a slave — 2 Comments

  1. I just wanted to thank you for writing this blog. I have been preparing my notes to write another blog post on both of my great, great grandfathers. The information I gleaned from you helped in tracking down more information on Fleming Stewart Sr. a slave born in West Virginia, who I believe was at Camp Barker in Washington, D.C. but also at Island #10.
    He made his way to freedom via Wisconsin to Elgin, IL. where he died.
    Again, thank you!
