Title A name given to the resource Dinwiddie County Manumission Documents Manumission Item Data Manumission Item Data Date Court Date 05/15/1854 Location The location of the interview Dinwiddie County Virginia Manumitter William Wynn Manumitted Victoria Gregory Wynn Text of Freedom Document I Wm G Wynn of the County of Dinwiddie do hereby emancipate and set free my female slave by name Victoria Gregory sometimes called Victoria Gregory Wynn and I do hereby invest her with all the rights and privileges of a free person with which it is in my power to invest her. The said slave is of very bright complexion so much so as to be generally considered a white person. She was born on the 22nd May 1840 and is the child of a slave woman formerly owned by me named Margaretta Mason who has since the birth of Victoria been emancipated. Margaretta was the daughter of a mulatto woman named Henrietta. From all I can ascertain as to the pedigree of the above named persons, I am satisfied that said Victoria has not more than one eighth negro blood, her mother Margaretta being the child of a white man, her grandmother Henrietta being also the child of a white man by a mulatto woman who was at least one half, it not three-fourths white. Witness my hand and seal this 15th day of May 1854. William G Wynn (seal) At a county court held for Dinwiddie County on the 15th day of May 1854. This deed of emancipation from William G. Wynn to Victoria Gregory, sometimes called Victoria Gregory Wynn, was acknowledged by the said William G. Wynn to be his act and deed and ordered to be recorded. And satisfactory proof being produced before the court by a white person that the said Victoria G. so emancipated though of mixed blood, is not a negro, having as appears by the [illegible] aforesaid less than one fourth of negro blood in her the court doth certify that she is not a negro.
