Sankofagen Wiki

is a growing collection of genealogical and historical data pertaining to U.S.A. antebellum plantations, farms, factories, manors, etc. that used African slave labor. This site is a wiki which means that you, the slave genealogy researcher, can add and update information instantly. I have set up country, state and plantation pages to seed this database. Hopefully, your contributions will help his site grow to become a resource to advance enslaved African ancestor genealogy.

Editing content is as simple as posting on a message board. Start today by sending me an e-mail: kh(underscore)art (at yahoo dot com) with "Sankofagen Wiki Contributor" in the subject line. I will then send you an invitation to join.

Note: I have decided to remove the Caribbean links. I do not have access to sufficient resources to build pages for plantations/ workplaces outside of the USA. There are other more comprehensive resources available which I will post links to soon. Thanks for your patience.
