Sale toward manumission registration for Pietje

← Back to Dashboard
📅 20 March 1850 📍 Suriname

Sale toward manumission registration. Registered owner or plantation: plantation Petersburg. Registered people: Pietje [male; mother: Arriaantje; birth date/year in register: 1822]. The register states: To Cleopatra Antonius ing resolution dated 22 May 1850 No 663 for manumission. Wrongly written off as research into the old Register showed that Pietje, who was sold to C Antonius, had not been included in the 1848 Table even though that sale had already taken place in 1847, so the written-off Pietje was added back to it.. The date used here is the mutation or registration date, which may differ from the actual date of the event. Archival reference: Suriname Slave Register inventory 23, folio 3777.
