Moment of truth on an overpass



Anthony Johnson was the slave owner spoken of. After he worked his indentured contract off. Upon his release, he did get 250 acres of land, and start farming. He also leased 300 acres for 99 years, and acquired 5 indentured servants, allowing him to claim 50 acres per head under the headright system, for an add'l 250 acres. When JOHN CASOR finished his servitude, Johnson sued to keep him for life, and the court agreed. Ergo, the first slave owner was Angolan, Anthony Johnson (black)
