I came across this while doing research on another surname.
Stephen Dubose(My 3rd Great Grandfather)Born:1838 in South Carolina? Died:1909 in Darlington, South Carolina.
Stephen DuBose was the slave of the family of Samuel DuBose. He is listed in the last will and testament of Samuel DuBose,dated 1857.
Stephen DuBose and his wife Laurie Dubose are listed in 1870, as living in Hamilton,Darlington, SC, on the old Gandy Plantation. He is listed as being born in 1838, in Mississippi?
According to my research he was Married at least twice and has children from both unions.
