"John
Drayton purchased the tract of land in 1738... While no
documents survive from this period to provide the exact n
umber of enslaved individuals owned by John Drayton, he
owned more than 100 commercial plantations totaling
approximately 76,000 acres of land, and the figure is
likely in the thousands."
