"Slave Biographies: The Atlantic Database Network is an open access data repository of information on the identities of enslaved people in the Atlantic World hosted at MATRIX, the Center for Digital Humanities and Social Sciences at Michigan State University. It includes the names, ethnicities, skills, occupations, and illnesses of individual slaves. Currently, users of the website can access data about slaves in colonial Louisiana and Maranhão, Brazil resulting from the research of Gwendolyn Midlo Hall and Walter Hawthorne. Users can download datasets, search for ancestors, and run statistical analysis." (last accessed Sept 13, 2016)
