1860 Slave Schedule. Winn Pr. LA Contributed by Greggory E. Davies. ********************************************** Copyright. All rights reserved. http://usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://usgwarchives.net/la/lafiles.htm ********************************************** ************************************************ Winn Parish, Louisiana was created by legislative act in 1852, carved from portions of Natchitoches, Catahoula, and Rapides Parishes, therefore, the first census of Winn Parish was taken in 1860. Sadly, Schedule 2, Slave Inhabitants, enumerated in June and July, 1860, and taken by Rowell D. Wall, Assistant Marshal, lists no slave names. The name of the slaveowner, the number of slaves owned, the age, sex, color ("B" for black, "M" for mixed or mulatto), whether or not the slave was a "fugitive from the state", whether or not the slave was manumitted (freed), whether or not the slave had an infirmity (deaf, dumb, blind, insane, or idiotic) and the number of slave houses are listed on the schedule. Sadly, the names of the slaves are not listed. It is impossible to tell the address, or area, of the residence of the slaveowner, unless one is familiar with early Winn Parish homesteads, which could possibly be occupied today, or in recent years, by the slaveowner's descendants. Interestingly, there are many households with only one slave and hardly any at all with large numbers of slaves. Only two families owned more than 100 slaves and two more families owned more than sixty. This adds credence to he long held belief that Winn Parish was relatively poor in its infancy. Many will argue that to be the case today. The listings below are in the order they appear on the census schedule. Spelling has not been corrected. Philip Bernstein 5 Jacob Shelton 1 D. C. Fouts 1 A.
