These volumes of slave narratives are the product of the Federal Writers Project sponsored by the Library of Congress and the Work Project Administration. They consist of verbatim records of personal interviews with former slaves conducted during 1936-1938.
'These life histories, taken down as far as possible in the narrators' words, constitute an invaluable body of unconscious evidence or indirect source material, . . . The narratives belong to folk history-history recovered from the memories and lips of participants or eye-witnesses,' This is for the state of Kentucky, Volume 7 in a series of 34 volumes. - Summary by Larry Wilson

Nannie Eaves had to know she married her cousin.😢

[@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973]

Why is that?

[@Jamnonit]

@@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973 she said that her enslaver was her father and her husband’s enslaver and father was her enslaver’s brother.

[@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973]

@@Jamnonit I see yes I would think so
