CASS COUNTY TEXAS SLAVES

Posted by GERALDINE JACKSON MONK on Sat, 17 Jan 2004, in response to SLAVES IN CASS COUNTY,TEXAS, posted by MUHAMMAD ABDULLAH on Tue, 17 Dec 2002

I AM FROM CASS COUNTY, TEXAS (LINDEN, TEXAS), CASS COUNTY WAS ALSO DAVIS COUNTY AT ON TIME AND THEN RENAMED CASS. IN THE 1840'S THERE WERE PERSONS OF BLACK DESCENT WHO WERE FREE WHO CAME TO THIS AREA AND PURCHASED LAND. MY GRANDFATHER WAS ONE. HE STATED, HE HAD KNOWN SLAVEWS, BUT HE HIMSELF HAD NEVER BEEN ONE, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT HE AT HIS BEATH IN THE THIRTIES, OWNED APPROX 90 ACRES, I SPOKE WITH OLDER WHITES WHO REMEMBERED WHEN HE CAME TO LINDEN, SAYNING HE LOOKED LIKED AN INDIAN. I HAVE COPIES OF DEEDS OF PROPERTY HE OWNED, BUT WHEN I TRY TO FIND ANY OTHER AVAILABLE RECORDS, I CAN'T FIND ANY OF HIS EXISTENCE EVEN WITH A COPY OF HIS DEATH CERTIFICATE, PHYSICAL GRAVE WITH A TOMBSTONE, BUT NO INTERNET OR ANCESTRY INFORMATION. GOOD LUCK ON YOU SEARCH.
