Slave Owners and Plantation/Farm Owners

Classification: Query
Surnames: Sydnor
My grandfather, Charles Sydnor, was a slave. He was born in 1853. He remembered traveling through the mountains from VA to settle in Troy, MO (formerly Bedford Township). His mother's name was Eliza, and I believe that his father's name was Henry. My grandfather also remembered that his mother was from Africa. I'm just looking for names of Sydnors who moved from VA and settled in the Troy, MO (Lincoln County/Bedford Township area) and any slave records they might have. If possible, I'm trying to find out in what area of Africa Eliza was born, as well as any other info I can obtain concerning her slave family in Troy. I certainly would appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thanks very much.
