The National Archives lists Thomas Acton and William Acton as manumitted on 11 April 1844. Both entries identify them as sons of Leentje Acton; their owner was Thomas Duncan Acton, and a 300-guilder bond was recorded for each. Their linked records preserve a maternal relationship that colonial slave registers often obscured by organizing people under owners.
