I represent Sukey. I was a woman of color in British Pensacola. My daughter’s baptism is in the records of Rev. Nathaniel Cotton, where she was identified as Susanna, “Daughter of a Negroe woman named Sukey” She was baptized May 15, 1769. Though the record was silent on my status, I was probably enslaved. There were on a few free people of color in the colony.
