Does anyone know how I can get to Slave Schedules from Arkansas & Mississippi? I am looking for my Clayton, Raymond & Blakney relatives. Blakney line would be considered both Mulatto and Native American. Any help would be appreciated.
I checked Ancestry.com and found the Slave Schedules for Arkansas for 1860; Benjamin Blakney was a slave owner and there were several people listed for him with various ages, some black and some mulatto. No names were given for the slaves, just ages and whether they were male or female. Several were one and two years old. I didn't find any Slave Schedules for Mississippi.
Can you tell me how to get into the Slave Schedules in Ancestry? I have a hard time navigating the searches. I always end up with too many people listed to search through!!
