Slaves in [[Delaware Genealogy|Delaware]] are sometimes mentioned in deeds (see "[[Delaware Land and Property|Land and Property]]"), in wills (see "[[Delaware Probate Records|Probate Records]]"), in tax records (see "[[Delaware Taxation|Taxation]]"), and in court order books (see the "[[Delaware Court Records|Court Records]]" pages of these Delaware Wiki pages). A few parish registers ("Church Records") list slaves who attended church with their masters.<br><br>
