Many important details not found in civil records appear in this collection, from about 50 newspapers and covering a wide area. Most idenitfy the brides's father or a parent - "second daughter to Ezekiel, of Spencer Co., KY.," "daughter of Edwin, deceased," fomerly of Hardin Co., TN." A vital clue often missing in courthouse papers is the "Mrs." preceding the bride's name, many brides were widows. Another useful category are records never found in courthoses because they are from "BURNED" countiesor reports of marriages which took place outside of the state. Old newspapers may be the only possiblesource of such information. This book contains 1,400 marriages, reported from all over the state; about 300 were outside of Missouri, some as close as Illinois and Kansas, others as far away as California. they include a number of odd, interesting and very human sidelights.
Download or read book Slavery and Crime in Missouri 1773 1865 written by Harriet C. Frazier and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slavery and its lasting effects have long been an issue in America, with the scars inflicted running deep. This study examines crimes such as stealing, burglary, arson, rape and murder committed against and by slaves, with most of the author's information coming from handwritten court records and newspapers. These documents show the death penalty rarely applied when a slave killed another slave, but that it always applied when a slave killed a white person. Despite Missouri's grim criminal justice system, the state's best lawyers were called upon to represent slaves in court on serious criminal charges, and federal law applied to all persons, granting slaves in Missouri protection that few other slave states had. By 1860, Missouri's population was only 10 percent slave, the smallest percentage of any slave state in America.

Download or read book Runaway and Freed Missouri Slaves and Those Who Helped Them 1763 1865 written by Harriet C. Frazier and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beginning of French rule of Missouri in 1720 through this state's abolition of slavery in 1865, liberty was always the goal of the vast majority of its enslaved people. The presence in eastern Kansas of a host of abolitionists from New England made slaveholding risky business. Many religiously devout persons were imprisoned in Missouri for "slave stealing." Based largely on old newspapers, prison records, pardon papers, and other archival materials, this book is an account of the legal and physical obstacles that slaves faced in their quest for freedom and of the consequences suffered by persons who tried to help them. Attitudes of both slave holders and abolitionists are examined, as is the institution's protection in both the Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution. The book discusses the experiences of particular individuals and examines the Underground Railroad on Missouri's borders. Appendices provide details from two Spanish colonial census reports, a list of abolitionist prison inmates with details about their time served, and the percentages of African Americans still in bondage in 16 jurisdictions from 1820 to 1860.
