SLAVE SCHEDULES

In the 1850 Census, an enumeration of slaves was performed. Full names were rarely recorded, yet each slave was numbered. Organized by owner, each person was listed with age, sex and color. With these details, along with other facts gathered outside the schedule, it is possible to locate a specific person without actually finding their name.

We have organized the 1850 Slave Census into three series for researchers - click to view:

• In the order of how the owners appear on the Census
• In owner names alphabetical order
• In slave age / gender order
