The Delaware County Bar Association and Delaware County Community College are excited to announce a year-long residency of a docket for enslaved people in Delaware County at the college beginning February 2022. This well-preserved book contains information from judicial proceedings as well as certain registration and manumission affidavits related to enslaved people in Delaware County from the years 1762 - 1831. Join us for our opening ceremony as our esteemed panelists Honorable Nathaniel C. Nichols, Retired Judge of the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas and Dr. Ife Williams, Professor of Political Science at Delaware County Community College, guide us to explore the significance of this piece of history and what we can learn from it. The session will also feature readings from notable works that shed light on the history and impact of slavery in the United States. We hope to see you there!
