Enslaved Persons Named: Ben, Tenah, Jackey [alt: Jacky], Jane, Phebe [alt: Phoebe], Windsor
On December 19, 1823, Oliver Stevens, planter of Liberty County, used as collateral on a promissory note to Josiah Wilson, also a planter of Liberty County, “all and each of the following negro slaves, together with the future increase of the females; that is to say, Ben, Tenah, Jackey [alt: Jacky], Jane, Phebe [alt: Phoebe] & Windsor.” Wilson had co-signed a note for Stevens with the Darien Bank for $1200, so Stevens mortgaged the enslaved people to him to indemnify him against loss. Witnessed by Matthew Bennet and [looks like Am Jas] Somersall. Recorded in Liberty County Superior Court on March 8, 1824.
[NOTE: This was marked as satisfied as of May 23, 1825, in Book I, page 133.] [Post edited on 8/8/2021 to add the note.]
