Greetings,
My ancestors were Slaves to Christopher Carlton Sr.
Christopher Carlton m. Jane Hart.
Children of Christopher were:
1.Christopher Jr.
2. Polly
3. Thomas
4. John F.
5. Elizabeth
6. Vincent
7. Nancy
Christopher Sr. Willed at least one slave "Esther" to his daughter Polly.
Joel Younger obtained the child "Ally" and 5 grandsons of that Slave Esther
from Polly.
Polly died without Issue, and in 1959, her siblings won a Suit against Joel
Younger that said he had no right to the slaves.
Joel paid $1,500 to settle the Suit.
Those Slaves that Joel had to pay for were my ancestors.
Can anyone help me to get more information about my people?
Thanks in advance,
Larry
