Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lynchburg and Its People I cannot claim that the history of Lynchburg is of greater importance than that of other places, except to the people of Lynchburg. It may be of interest to them to learn of the struggles through which the fathers passed to establish our native city, and coming generations may be concerned to know what we did to make life more comfortable, and to bequeath to them larger opportunities for usefulness. Such are the limitations of my work that I have not been able to tell all that I would have liked to tell, neither have I found time and space to trace family histories, interesting of course to the families. I have spoken of people only as they were connected with the town's history, hence many worthy citizens have not been mentioned because their quiet life kept them out of the public view. At the risk of being tedious, I have given the names of the citizens who took part in affairs of importance, in order that the men and the movements might be associated together. The work could have been done better, but with the responsibility of a large church, I have done what I could, and I trust that my efforts will be looked upon by my townspeople with a leniency that should view a labor largely inspired by love.

Download or read book The Secret Life of Bacon Tait a White Slave Trader Married to a Free Woman of Color written by Hank Trent and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2017-03-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians have long discussed the interracial families of prominent slave dealers in Richmond, Virginia, and elsewhere, yet, until now, the story of slave trader Bacon Tait remained untold. Among the most prominent and wealthy citizens of Richmond, Bacon Tait embarked upon a striking and unexpected double life: that of a white slave trader married to a free black woman. In The Secret Life of Bacon Tait, Hank Trent tells Tait’s complete story for the first time, reconstructing the hidden aspects of his strange and often paradoxical life through meticulous research in lawsuits, newspapers, deeds, and other original records. Active and ambitious in a career notorious even among slave owners for its viciousness, Bacon Tait nevertheless claimed to be married to a free woman of color, Courtney Fountain, whose extended family were involved in the abolitionist movement and the Underground Railroad. As Trent reveals, Bacon Tait maintained his domestic sphere as a loving husband and father in a mixed-race family in the North while running a successful and ruthless slave-trading business in the South. Though he possessed legal control over thousands of other black women at different times, Trent argues that Tait remained loyal to his wife, avoiding the predatory sexual practices of many slave traders. No less remarkably, Courtney Tait and their four children received the benefits of Tait’s wealth while remaining close to her family of origin, many of whom spoke out against the practice of slavery and even fought in the Civil War on the side of the Union. In a fascinating display of historical detective work, Trent illuminates the worlds Bacon Tait and his family inhabited, from the complex partnerships and rivalries among slave traders to the anxieties surrounding free black populations in Courtney and Bacon Tait’s adopted city of Salem, Massachusetts. Tait’s double life illuminates the complex interplay of control, manipulation, love, hate, denigration, and respect among interracial families, all within the larger context of a society that revolved around the enslavement of black Americans by white traders.
