The following subject presentation brings together information researched from multiple collections within the City of Savannah's Research Library & Municipal Archives. In an effort to provide greater access to primary sources regarding the City of Savannah’s ownership of enslaved people, collections were reviewed and selections were made for digitization. The following is a list of collections that were reviewed: the City Council Minutes, Mayor’s/Municipal Annual Reports, Cash Books and Annual Settlement Book from the City Treasurer’s Collection, City Code and Ordinances Books, and the General and East/West Map Collections.
