Scanned images of a Deed of Gift recorded in the Chatham County, Georgia country clerk's office on 21 March 1811. This document is part of Jones Memorial Library Manuscript Collection 1141, the Potter Estate Papers, Box 1-1.
The Potter estate included the Tweedside and Colerain Plantations near Savannah, Georgia.
This deed of gift records the transfer of named enslaved persons Minda and her child from Sarah Jones to Jones' great grand daughter.
"Minda" refers to Minda Campbell. Minda was mother to Thomas Sims (1828-1902), who was enslaved by James Potter but escaped from Savannah, Georgia to Boston, Massachusetts in 1851. Sims was then apprehended under the Fugitive Slave Act and, following a trial, was forcibly returned back to Savannah. Following the Civil War, Sims accepted a position at the U.S. Department of Justice under U.S. Attorney General Charles Deval.
