NCGenWeb Statewide Information

A NCGenWeb Special Project

Documented Slave Plantations of  North Carolina is a comprehensive database of various  plantations derived from a variety of information mediums. 

Maintained by Deloris Williams

Note that some of the slave listings are under the Counties from which the families were originally living, including now extinct Counties. Owners & dates listed are those known as the original owners or those most associated as owners.  Those with Slave Listings are indicated as such or by links to their Wills or other records.  This site provides pages with slave information, or links to sites with data or resources to help in your research of your Slave Ancestors. If a Plantation is not listed below, we don't have it.  If you have valid transcribed info of your own research that includes both records about Plantation owners as well as names of the enslaved people who lived there, and you wish to share it, please read the Instructions for Submittingg page.   Click onto photos on any of these pages to view larger images.
