Jonas Eiler Nov. 22, 1752-April 19, 1825
I have a deed dated May 17, 1790 where Jonas Eiler sold a mulatto woman named Elizabeth, aged 25, and her four children at the Port of Natchez.The story goes that this man was from Va. and he inherited his father's plantation and slaves.Natchez was the second biggest slave market in the South, so the speculation is that he brought slaves to Natchez to sell.
Does anybody know anything about this Jonas Eiler?
Thanks!
