lol it's easy to know when my ancestors was slaves when my fathers family was my mothers family slave owners when the state of Mississippi now pays me for the use of those cotton fields. I know his thoughts because he taught against slaves being free his entire life he fought against other whites that wanted slaves to be free.
Wait backup, so your fathers family owned your mothers family back when there was slavery, got that.
So did someone on your fathers side marry/knock up/get knocked up by one of their slaves, or did by chance your parents found out after tracing back their family history? Sorry if it's personal, it's just interesting.
Yes sir my father surname is Leverette his great grandfather had a child by his wife's midwife who was a slave. The plantation house and the slave houses are still on our property with pictures and the church that was built out there. The Douglas which is my moms family and the Leverett's has been connected since then even stayed on the property to become share croppers
Yeah the first time I met my fathers family I was confused as hell lolVery cool story!
