Biography
A Dan Bogie enslaved Bogie on his property near Kirksville in Madison County, Kentucky. The enslaver, Dan Bogie, owned about 200 acres of land in the eastern portion of Garrard County. In the early 1860s, the enslaved Dan Bogie lived somewhere on this property with his wife, Lucinda Embry, and their two children. Lucinda had been enslaved by the Wheeler family in Garrard County. His son, also named Dan Bogie, was born on May 5, 1858. Two years later, they had a daughter whose name was unknown. They lived in a one-room cabin. Bogie and Lucinda slept on a four-post, corded bed while their children slept on a corded trundle. It is unknown what kind of work Bogie was put to during his enslavement, but according to his son, he and the other men would go fishing on Saturday afternoons.
