Summary: Consists of the data files of many contributors in the same format as originally created by their compilers. No software is resident on the CD and no attempt was made to standardize the software with which each contributor worked. The files convert readily to formats of other applications. Hall has created and edited a collection of well over 100,000 records from countless civil documents, manuscripts, and published censuses to provide a look into the lives of Africans and peoples of African descent in Louisiana, as well as of their owners and freers, from earliest colonial times through 1860. Notes: System requirements: "formatted to be readable on pc's with reasonable speed, memory and a compact disk drive, the data can be opened with good quality database or spreadsheet software in either a DOS or Windows environment; Calculations can be made on SPSS for Windows or other good statistical software."
Subject (LC): Afro-Americans--Genealogy. Louisiana--Genealogy. Louisiana--History--To 1803--Sources. Added author: Hall, Gwendolyn Midlo. Genre: CD-ROM.
