Event Description
Sussex County Births of Enslaved Children microfilm contains the following record:

Child: name not listed

Enslaver of mother and child: Abram Corson
Location: Hardyston Township
Birth date: August 15, 1804
Recorded date: February 21, 1805
Clerk: J.S. Thompson

The certificate states "when born belonging to Abram Corson, born at the house of James Beardslee." The record was later submitted to the clerk by George Beardslee, seemingly suggesting that George Beardslee became the enslaver of the boy by the time the certificate was filed.
