Because the year 1808 has some legal significance in the history of American slavery, I will write about that soon.Craig Mansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06567686559055003349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224874.post-66106485146148324002008-01-09T06:44:00.000-08:002008-01-09T06:44:00.000-08:00I'm so glad to see that you took the time to look ...I'm so glad to see that you took the time to look back at 1908 along with me, Craig. It was interesting to read about your family in that year, particularly your mentions of those that were formerly held in slavery. <BR/><BR/>I find it incomprehensible to fully imagine the world that they lived in. Looking back 100 years, I'm sure that they faced many challenges and much suffering at the hands of the prevailing cultural attitudes. It makes me wonder how much you've learned about your family before 1908 and if you have made it back as far as 200 years ago - 1808 - when slavery was fully imbedded into the society.<BR/><BR/>I look forward to reading more about your family's fascinating journey.Lisa / Smallest Leafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811771280872197611noreply@blogger.com
