This database includes names found in governmental records involving the
servitude and emancipation of Africans and, occasionally, Indians in the
French and English eras of colonial Illinois (1722–1790) and
African-Americans in the American period of Illinois (1790–1863). The
Archives extracted the names of servants, slaves, or free persons and
masters, witnesses, or related parties from selected governmental records to
produce this database. After searching the database, researchers can see an
abstract of the record by clicking the record number of the appropriate
entry. If you would like an unofficial and uncertified copy of the record,
