Slave Manumissions in Alexandria Land Records, 1790-1863

Slave Manumissions in Alexandria Land Records, 1790-1863

Note: This is a large file. It will take some minutes to load.

The following is a list of manumissions of African-American slaves recorded in the court records for the town and county of Alexandria, 1785 to 1863. Manumissions are records of legal emancipation of slaves. These are drawn principally from the town's deed books. The records for the years 1791 through 1800 are mainly from the Alexandria Hustings Court (which are below cited as "Hust" followed by the deed book letter and page) but also from Fairfax County Deed Books (identified below as "Ffx." followed by the book and page numbers). Those from 1801 to 1863 were recorded in the Alexandria Circuit Court, the court of jurisdiction during and after the period in which Alexandria was a portion of the District of Columbia. (Circuit Court records are indicated below simply by the alphanumeric book designation and page.) A fourth source is the collection of miscellaneous Alexandria (now Arlington) County records held by the Library of Virginia (cited below as "LVA").

These are not the only Alexandria manumission records, of course. Any study of manumissions requires examination of the county's "Free Negro Registers," which have been transcribed and published by Dorothy S. Provine (Alexandria County, Virginia, Free Negro Registers, 1797-1861, Bowie, Maryland, 1991). This book has been referenced herein to supply slave surnames, shown in brackets, when none are given in the original deeds. Will books are another productive source of information, as are court minutes.

The table below consists of six columns. The first contains the date of the manumission instrument (not the date it was recorded by the court). The date is often not the actual date of emancipation, as many of these documents were agreements to release slaves at a fixed date in the future, and some were formalizing releases already made. The second column contains the name of the owner and/or manumitter; the manumission was often granted by heirs or executors of the actual owner. The owner's place of residence is listed only when it is a place other than the town or county of Alexandria. If the owner was known to be a free black (who was usually securing the freedom of a family member), it is indicated. The third column contains the names of the slaves freed, plus the price of their freedom, where available (unless the price or consideration was a token amount-such as five shillings or one, five, or ten dollars or Virginia pounds). The fourth column contains remarks about the ages, descriptions, origins, relationships, former owners, or circumstances of the release of the slaves. All ages, except perhaps those giving exact birthdates, are to be considered approximate. The fifth column contains the names of witnesses to the manumission document. The witnesses were frequently friends, family or business associates of the owners, or notaries and justices of the peace. Several Quaker names appear frequently, as they were actively involved in sponsoring emancipations. Many entries list no witnesses, although there may have been some prersent in many cases. When the manumission was recorded on the same day or day after the document was written, the judge's name is provided as the sole witness. The sixth column contains the citation of the source (see above).
