Records of the Slave Claims Commissions Volume I: Register of Claims of the Delaware Commission
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
The Slave Claims Commissions were created by the War Department in late 1863, in order to compensate the owners of slaves who enlisted in the Union Army. Only Union-controlled slave states were eligible--Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri, West Virginia, and Tennessee.
This first volume in a proposed series of books transcribing and abstracting the records of the Slave Claims Commission, presents the claims registered by the Delaware Slave Claims Commission.
