INTENTIONAL FORGETTING - bios scrubbed

"This neglect turns out to be a persistent pattern in nineteenth-century and early-twentieth-century obituaries of former traders and in biographical directories and county histories of the period. Antebellum whites were sensitive to the charge that as slaveholders they acted callously toward slave families and, as we shall see, they played down the role of the trade. For many decades afterwards, white Southerners continued to hide and marginalize the trade. We shall see that other factors also contributed to the deemphasis of the trade, practical matters concerning the survival of traders' manuscript records and the difficulties of reconstructing collective biographies from available primary sources." -Tadman 1996
