  • THE PRICE of BONDAGE: SLAVERY, SLAVE VALUATION, and ECONOMICS in the ALBEMARLE by Jacob T. Parks April 2018 Director of Thesis
    THE PRICE OF BONDAGE: SLAVERY, SLAVE VALUATION, AND ECONOMICS IN THE ALBEMARLE By Jacob T. Parks April 2018 Director of Thesis: Donald H. Parkerson Major Department: History This thesis examines the economics of antebellum slavery in the Albemarle region of North Carolina. Located in the northeastern corner of the Carolina colony, the Albemarle was a harsh location for settlement and thus, inhabitants settled relatively late by Virginians moving south in search of better opportunities. This thesis finds that examination of a region’s slave economics not only conformed to, but also departed from, the larger slave experience in antebellum America. The introduction of this thesis focuses on the literature surrounding slave economics and valuation in antebellum America. After this, the main body of the thesis follows. Chapter one focuses on the various avenues slaves became property of white men and women in the Albemarle. This reveals that the county courts were intrinsically involved in allowing slave sales to occur, in addition to loop-holes slave owners utilized to retain chattel slavery cheaply. Additionally, this chapter pays special attention to slave valuation and statistical analysis. The following chapters revolve around the topics of: the miscellaneous costs associated with slavery in the Albemarle, such as healthcare, food, and clothing; insuring the lives of slaves and hiring them out for work away from their master; and examination of runaway slave rewards in statistical terms, while also creating a narrative of the enslaved and their actions.

Although one of the oldest in the state of North Carolina, the county has also been one of the most overlooked. Piecing together the history of the county is difficult. Many of the records pertaining to the early history of Currituck have been lost or destroyed. A courthouse fire in 1842, for example, destroyed a substantial body of records, including marriage records. As a consequence, much of the county’s past lives on as oral history; written accounts tend to be either personal reminiscences or a recounting of events that have been passed orally through the different generations of a family. The history of the county remains to be written. A Geographical Overview of the County The most northeasterly of the one hundred North Carolina counties, Currituck is a peninsula: the land is long and narrow, low and even. The county consists of a mainland portion and an offshore strand. This survey was confined to the mainland area and the islands in Currituck Sound, sometimes referred to as the Tidewater; the area of the county known as the Outer Banks was surveyed separately in 2002.

    The Florida Historical Quarterly January 1970 PUBLISHED BY THE FLORIDA HISTORICAL SOCIETY FRONT COVER Francis de La Porte, Comte de Castelnau, eminent nineteenth century naturalist and traveler, made an extended journey to America (1837-1341), and spent four months-November 1837 to March 1838-in Florida. His “Essai sur La Floride du Milieu,” published in Nouvelles Annales des Voyages et des Sciences Geographiques in 1843, describes the Middle Florida area that he visited. Eleven lithographs of Florida scenes appeared in Castelnau’s Vues et Souvenirs de l’ Amerique du Nord which was published in Paris in 1842. Seven of these important lithographs and the translations of Castelnau’s Florida writings appeared in the Florida Historical Quarterly, XXVI (October 1947-January 1948). There is nothing in Castlenau’s writings to indicate that he was ever in Key West. This lithograph is undoubtedly a copy of a small pencil sketch made by William Adee Whitehead in June 1838. It is looking north toward the business section of Key West. Whitehead, a civil engineer who had made an official survey of the island in 1829, and who had served as collector of customs, made this sketch from the cupola of the A. C. Tift & Co. ware- house. Where Castelnau saw Whitehead’s sketch is not known, but it is likely that it was in New Jersey or New York. Whitehead took the sketch with him when he went North in 1838, and he did not return it to Key West until 1872. It is believed that the sketch was later destroyed in a fire.
