This is the story of George Freeman: enslaved in West Africa, 'liberated' in Sierra Leone, and taken to live in 1812 Berkshire.
My new article for Slavery & Abolition uncovers his life, and the difficulty of researching 'imperceptible' lives in the archive

Amazing work

[MA Naval, Maritime and Coastal History Portsmouth @Naval_History]

So thrilled that our MA student, who spent several years researching a biography of Capt James Fitzjames, is key to this remarkable discovery. Her research connected the Canadian scholars with Fitzjames' descendant. Congratulations, Fabienne! 'Finding Fitzjames', indeed!

I’m pleased to share that I have a new peer-reviewed article out now, with the Journal of History about Chesapeake Algonquian nations shaping moral insecurity to colonization in the Virginia Company (1606-1624). Please reach out if you need access.

Atlantic Geographies was a resounding success! Massive thanks to @UniRdg_History for hosting us! @moregreyham

[Graham Moore @moregreyham]

@MsKerryApps @BerksArchives @UniRdg_History Isn’t it!! The detail is great too; stuff like the ‘grey area’ in the middle that represents areas of his life we have less archival info for (I pestered the artist with many questions can you tell)

[Graham Moore @moregreyham]

Amazing artwork & writing on display at @BerksArchives today - inspired by local schoolchildren’s responses to George’s life story.
(Art by Euan Cook, writing/poetry by Maisie Crittenden; joint project with RBA, @UniRdg_History & local primaries)
