📅 20 August 1828 📍 Curacao

The register records manumission for Philip Marten, described by the source using a racialized child category, through Abraham Henriquez Juliao. Juliao’s petition was filed in March 1828; a bond was recorded in June. The delay and surety show that freedom depended on colonial authorization and financial guarantees.
