Slave Owners

Plantations

  • On Edisto Island, but which plantation is not known.

Research Needed

  • Disposition after 1862.
  • Last name adopted after emancipation.
  • The 1820 probate inventory of owner Henry Calder lists a man named either Comba or Cumbo, Given the 40+ years separating the 1862 inventory for William Baynard, it seems unlikely that they represent the same slave. But this should be kept in mind.
