📅 9 April 1863 📍 Sürnam

The archive records George Frits Prix, born in 1841 and the son of Louisa, as manumitted on 9 April 1863. J.H. Kruse acted “for freedom,” and the record lists George as a house servant. This pre-emancipation release demonstrates an individual route to freedom within a system that continued to enslave thousands until 1 July.
