Somerset County birth records of enslaved children contain the following record:
Book A, page number: 70
Child: Rachel
Mother: Subina (Sabina)
Enslaver of mother and child: Mary Lupp
Location: Franklin township
Birth date: 4 Feb 1808
Reported date: 9 Oct 1808
Clerk: Joseph Doty
This record lists Franklin township as the place of residence. Other county records submitted by Mary Lupp specify that she lived in the City of New Brunswick (in that portion of the city located within the boundaries of Franklin township).
This record in Book A does not list the child's father, but a different birth certificate later submitted for Rachel's sister Hannah clarifies that Sabina was the wife of Pompey and that Pompey was the father of Sabina's three children. - Event Type
