I have gone through the Slave Records of Edgefield County, SC and was successful in finding some of my relatives. This book does require a great deal of patience because the slaves are listed only by first names. Some individuals are listed in family groupings while others are listed alone. The researcher must have already identified their ancestor's to at least the 1870 census to be able to use this book successfully.

If any other researchers have used this book, please share how you were able to identify your ancestor.
