BEFORE CIVIL WAR : RE : SLAVERY

[+] serious ballot by LCD
ACTIVE Thu Feb 28, 08 - Fri Feb 27, 09
quite a few slaves either were granted freedom by their owners, or bought their freedom from them.

I was wondering, were there any free black men who then turned around, and bought slaves for their own farms?

Or get some indentured servants from Ireland, when the potato famine was in full swing?

curious minds wanna know.

Yes they did
No they did not
what the hell's wrong with you? How dare you ask that?!?

Yes, that was one of many weirdnesses of what Southerners called their "peculiar institution."

I don't really know. Honestly, this is a period of history I try to stay somewhat *less* than conversant in...

Well now, we only have the story tellers word that this practice existed then, therefore, I would venture to say that the story tellers owned slaves themselves...
