| 520 | |a The Town Clerk’s Office in South Kingstown, Rhode Island holds records dating back to the late seventeenth century chronicling the social relations and material culture of this early American town. Moreover, they document the existence of enslaved people. Traces of these individuals remain in probate records, where human beings were assigned value and treated as property. The original volumes include some materials from North Kingstown dating before the towns split in 1722. In 2018, Salve Regina University Archives and Special Collections in Newport began the Documenting Slavery Project to digitize, describe, and publish these town records. They serve as evidence of how slavery was conceived of, recorded, and carried out in colonial Rhode Island. Additional digital documents and descriptions are ongoing. This collection is maintained by Salve Regina University and their description was made possible with support from the Rhode Island Foundation. These materials contain offensive and harmful racial terms and content. | ||
