Notes

A group of enslaved people owned by Isaac Allen in right of his wife Cecilia, very likely worked upon Isaac Allen's estate of Breadnut Valley (this would make the total numbers for Breadnut Valley consistent between the slave registers and the almanacs). Inherited by the infant heirs of Cecilia by 1820 and still registered to them (by their guardian) in 1832.
