Unnamed Cemetery, 62-4 Summary Report, page 35
In the 1860 census, Richard's widow Sarah is shown as owning 16 slaves. Her son Theophilus was shown as owning 3, as was daughter Margaret and also daughter Sarah “Jr.”. Her son John T. Lipscomb was listed as the owner of either 5 or 8 - the record is not clearly written. That gave a total for the Lipscomb family of 29 (or 32?) slaves just before the Civil War led to their freedom.
