1850 Clarke County, Georgia Slave Owners

abstracted by Mary Hoit Abbe with assistance from Christine Hamm

Listed below is an alphabetical list of the slave owners found in Schedule 2, often called the “Slave Schedule”, for Clarke County, Georgia in the 1850 U.S. Federal Census.

The number of slaves refers to the number owned at the location listed. It is likely that some of these persons owned slaves in more than one district of Clarke County and in other counties. The page number refers to the page the person is listed on in the original schedule.

There were fourteen districts for Clarke County in 1850:
AthensBuck BranchBuncombeDupree’sFarmingtonGeorgia FactoryHigh ShoalsPuryear’sSalemSandy CreekScull ShoalsVinson’sWatkinsville, and Wild Cat.
(Click on the district name to see slave owners from that district only.)

The actual 1850 Clarke County Schedule 2 Census is 80 pages long and includes the slave owner’s name and the age, sex, and colour [sic] of the slave. No slave names are given.
