hi,
Since his parents were born in the 1850's..You might need to check the slave scheduals. I think the 1860 census may still register Blacks as slaves. Civil war 1860 - 1865.
I've never worked with researching slaves scheduals.1870 would be the first listing all Blacks as free persons of color ---- 1850 and below could have listings of free person's of color. I think its "and others" for Native Americans.
If you find your getting back into the middle 1700s try contacting Roberta Estes of the Lost Colony website.
