Slavery Era Insurance Registry
California first adopted legislation, and other states subsequently followed, requiring insurance companies to determine whether they had records going back to when slavery existed in this country and, if so, to provide information on insurance policies held by slaveholders for death or damage of their enslaved persons that the company wrote either directly or through a predecessor corporation during the slavery era.
