African-American Resources
African-American Research is difficult because of the lack of historical records before the Civil War. We will post additional data on this website as often as it is found or contributed. While we are aware of what is politically correct today, we are dealing with historical data and all data on this site is transcribed exactly as written. No disrespect or offense is intended.

"In all of us there is a hunger, marrow-deep, to know our heritage, to know who we are and where we have come from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness."
