Hi,
Thank you for your response. After a lot of research and help from people like you, I received the bill of sale for my ggggrandmother, my gggrandmother and her futrue husband from a Burrage descendent and friend, Joy Ross. My gggrandfather is the 22 year old male on the 1850 census, and he was an Indian, sold in Alabama as a slave.
My gggrandmother was Ellen Emmons, and her white father, Daniel (from Fauquier, Virginia) purchased his daughter, her mother and her future husband from the Alabama estate of Thomas Burrage in 1839. Thomas was Daniel's brother-in-law. He then sold my gggrandfather, Washington, to Henry Crofton and we acquired the last name, Crofton.
Again, thank you for your kind response and good luck with your research,
Denise
