    A painful, but yet fascinating project, rarely spoken of but well worth compiling as long as it helps rather then hurts.

    As an aside, went to a mutual friends house way out in the boonies, and he took me to this small square of land with river rocks with names carved into them. Overgrown with small trees etc, it was a fmr Slave Graveyard long forgotten to time or concern.
