• Notes

  Hello, I read this passage on the Maryland State Archives board and decided to put a chart together. Now I need some help on getting to the wills, inventories, appraisements, and disbursements of the people in the chart below. Pvt. Henry Dent, USCT, 19th Regiment, Company K, was owned by Thomas Owen Bean and his daughter, Lucinda Bean Gough who married William Henry Gough. Henry's father was owned by Thomas Owen Bean as well. Henry had a brother named Stephen Dent. The people in the chart represent the direct line ancestors of Thomas Owen Bean and their wives. I'm looking for the names of all of the slaves mentioned in the will, inventories, appraisements, and disbursements.Can anyone fill in the rest of the chart? Would there be anyone who can get to these documents and send me the info that is there? Saundra Oliver Brown, saundra_b_2001@yahoo.com saundrab1@netzero.com DISTRIBUTION OF SLAVES A distribution documents how the assets of a deceased person's estate were divided among the heirs. Most distributions record the percentage and dollar amount of the estate that each heir received. Only occasionally do distributions list slaves. Two counties, however, kept record series that specifically recorded distributions of slaves. The Archives holds distributions of slaves for the Somerset County Register of Wills from 1827 to 1862 and for the Kent County Register of Wills from 1860 to 1864. A typical distribution of slaves gives the name of the deceased, the date of distribution, the name of the executor or administrator, and the names (first name only), ages, and values of the slaves. Also listed are the names of the heirs who inherited the slaves. Most of the volumes are self-indexed by the name of the deceased, but there is no index for Somerset County for 1842-1850. Although the Archives has distributions of slaves for only Kent and Somerset Counties, some of the other counties kept separate series of regular distributions: Anne Arundel, Caroline, Cecil, Dorchester, Frederick, Harford, Prince George's, St. Mary's, Talbot, Washington, and Worcester. One may find mixed in with these regular distributions some that specify slaves.
