description Reverend W.D. Chadick was engaged by S.D. Cabaniss to travel to Ohio to research the attitudes of the white population towards freed persons and to evaluate the prospects of settling the Townsend heirs in that area. Wesley Townsend, the oldest of the Townsend heirs and the first to be manumitted, accompanied Chadick on his journey. Though Chadick found the disposition of Ohioans towards freed persons generally unfavorable, he recommended both the Athens district and the area surrounding Xenia, Ohio, as suitable places for the Townsend heirs to relocate.The digitization of this collection was funded by a gift from EBSCO Industries.
