Bill of Sale. Reuben Hays sells to Jesse Hays “one Negro woman named Easlton about sixty years old”, for $50. “Easlton” is my best guess. Easlt…is pretty clear, but possibilities are Easllon, Easltom, Easltorn, maybe others. No further information about her or her relationships. The document was signed April 4, 1851, presented in Court May 1851, and registered June 18, 1851.
