Utalis appears in the Aruba database as emancipated as Utalis Bremer. The record gives a full birth date, identifies Anna Martha as the mother, and lists farming as the occupation. At eleven years old, Utalis was still a child when slavery was abolished; the record documents a legal change without describing the childโs own experience. The database dates this emancipation to 1 July 1863.
