- Biographical Description
-
Isaac Laing Jr. of Woodbridge, NJ, was an enslaver who manumitted a man named Solomon on April 20, 1802.
Note that the Middlesex County Manumission Book contains another entry for one Isaac Laing of Woodbridge in 1800 (p. 12). The 1800 record does not list "Junior" or "Senior" after Isaac Laing's name. It is possible that Isaac Laing who manumitted Dick in 1800 is the same as Issac Laing Jr. who manumitted Solomon in 1802, or these may be two separate people.
The Laings were a Quaker family of Scottish origin. - Keywords
