Description

From the Kentucky Historical Society, "The author describes this list as an '…attempt to ascertain as many names as possible of persons held in bondage in Kenton County, Kentucky, from the formation of the county out of Campbell County until passage of the Thirteenth Amendment….The records used were Inventory Books and original inventory documents, Will Books and original Wills at Covington, Deed Books and vital statistics records.'
For the most part, enslaved individuals are listed by first name, even in the rare instance when secondary names or surnames are available. "
