It is generally recognized that antebellum interracial
relationships were "notorious" at the neighborhood level, but we
have yet to fully uncover the complexities of such relationships,
especially from freedwomen's and children's points of view.
Likewise, the frequency with which southern white men freed
enslaved women and their children is now generally known to those
familiar with American history, but less is known about the
financial and emotional investments in them made by these men.
Sharony Green presents three case studies with evidence from
surviving letters that indicate a kind of "love" existing between
the ex-slave mistress and her former master. She follows the
journey of these women and children from the south to Cincinnati,
which had the largest per capita population of mixed race people
outside the South during the antebellum period.
