Delete comment from: Boston 1775
I was told that they sold the land in Georgia because of an auction and slave holdings nearby that was quickly being surrounded by plantations. Savanah was becoming a hub for the slave trade in the region Not the entire economy but clear and out in the open in the center of it all. As a ship captain. He was constantly exposed to it. Charles was meant to join them again when he was done selling assets in boston and roxbury. But the ship wrecked off the coast of Virginia and he had to deal with that also and while back in Boston. He died. Daniel then married Martha and had at 3 sons and a daughter. Alexander, Daniel and John and Sarah. They also had an infant that died named Charles. And Hannah stayed with them untill they all packed up and headed for indiana. Where Daniel started another livery, stable and horse ranch. And worked on breeding again. They had brought with them all the way from Ireland. Alexander had a knack for it like his grandpa charles he never got to meet. And started a race track. Near Princeton. Where people would come from Louisville and cincinati to try and beat his horses.
