Deal's of Color
I am researching a Deal family from Rapides Parish, Louisiana.I have the family as follows;
Davis Deal b. 1855 in Louisiana.On the earliest census in 1880 he listed his father as being born in VA and mother in LA.He married an Adda or Addie Dabney in 1976 in Rapides Parish.He had children
Aaron
Paul
Walter
Willie
Madison
Sarah
Henderson
Martin
Samuel
I have no experience researching African American families and have lost them before 1880.Davis was 15 in 1870 but can't find him anywhere.I was hoping to find slave lists where he and his mother or father could be listed but don't know how to do this.I could use any help that I can get.Thanks, Sharon
