First to own a black slave for life

[My Name Is Kate]

This is somewhat an aside, but I once edited a Wikipedia article (the topic was music, not history) and I was amazed to see that my edit immediately was inserted into the article and went online, apparently without anyone reviewing it to see if it was factual! Ever since, I've been very leery of what I read on that site, although in general, it seems to be a fairly good source of info.
