Does anyone have information on the slaves of Mullican Nored of Alabama and other Nored families of Alabama. All the records of the 1800s show that Mullican was the only Nored head of household in the Conecuh County area of Alabama. There are many african american Nored/Nared descendants, and all of us came from Conecuh County, Alabama. There were lots of Nored offspring in the 1870 Census and in the 1866 Colored Census on Conecuh County Alabama. These were the only known black Noreds. We have many branches, but we have traced our lineage back to Alabama. All of the original african american Noreds were very light skinned people (near white) They were listed as Mulattos in the Census.
I am asking for any leads, any information can help. I know a lot of people don't like to talk about slaves and slavery or the possibilty that their ancestors owned slaves, but it happened and it's a part of history that we can not change. But I need the help of the Mullican Nored descendants. Any and all informatioin can help. Did he have land? How much? What happened to his land in Alabama? Why did his descendants spread through Tennessee and Texas? Did he have house servants or field servants? Does any tax assessment infromation reveal any identities of servants (slaves). PLEASE, any information can help.
Thanks in advance for your time and your help.
Sincerely,
Dante Eubanks
