Manumission was recorded 22 April 1808. Isaac Owens of Georgetown in the District of Columbia releases from slavery a Negro woman called Rachel, mother of John and Joseph Smallwood, after she has served him until 4 November 1808, and again from 4 November for the term of 11 years. Rachel was 22 years of age on 4 November 1807. Rachel was purchased by Isaac Owens from John Furguson, Agent of David Furguson. But if Rachel should have children before being free her children will be subject to service. Her sons will be in service until the age of 25, and her daughters will be in service until the age of 21. Signed on 22 April 1808 by Isaac Owens.
