472. McDOWELL FAMILY PAPERS
ca. 600 items, 1792-1852
Largely the papers of Colonel James
McDowell of Rockbridge County. These are
mainly political in nature, but there are references to slavery, such as a
letter from Preston to James
McDowell discussing the possibility of selling his slaves and
undated lists
enumerating prices of slaves.
There are many examples of hiring out slaves, e.g., two in 1808.
(Acc. 1707)
