Description

Carolyn Lawrence received this descendants list from her former mother-in-law, Annie Inez Gordon Harris – the list dates back to 1795. The first individual listed, Peter Brummel Hughes (1794-1894), is believed to be a former slave. Family members’ place of origin vary, ranging from southern states to midwest cities; some family members who lived outside of the United States. This list records a long family line and helps shed light on Black migratory habits, including during the Great Migration.
