- The Ten Largest Emancipations in Albemarle County with Sam Towler
May 1, 2025
Ten years ago, Gayle Schulman did a draft index of where the emancipations of Albemarle can be located in the deed and will books of Albemarle. Building on this, Sam picked out the 10 largest emancipations of Albemarle from Gayle’s list and looked at them in detail and will present a summary. An example of one of the summary slides is shown.
In person at the JSAAHC.
