Ship masters paid duties for importing '''African slaves''' into the colony.<ref>Darold D. Wax, "Negro Import Duties in Colonial Pennsylvania," ''The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography,'' Vol. 97, No. 1 (Jan. 1973):22-44. For free online access, see [http://www.werelate.org/wiki/Source:Historical_Society_of_Pennsylvania._Pennsylvania_Magazine_of_History_and_Biography WeRelate].</ref> Many people came to Pennsylvania and the other colonies as '''indentured servants'''. <ref>Sharon V. Salinger, ''To Serve Well and Faithfully: Labor and Indentured Servants in Pennsylvania, 1682-1800'' (New York, NY: Cambridge University Press, 1987; Family History Library book {{FHL|604594|item|disp=FHL book 974.8 E6ss}}. It includes the names of some individuals who were indentured servants. The sources Salinger used can provide examples of the kind of records to search to find out information about these individuals. </ref>

*During the 19th and especially the 20th centuries, '''African Americans''' from the southern states also moved to Pennsylvania in large numbers.
