LEVI JACKSON, OWNER OF SLAVES
(As told by Francelene Elizabeth Cohn to Deborah Cohn Clayton)


My great-grandfather was Levi Jackson, cousin to the famous "StonewallJackson," who was a Confederate General in the Civil War. Levi Jacksonowned and farmed a lot of land and owned quite a number of slaves whoworked the farm. Toward the end of the Civil War, he could see all ofhis property (his slaves) evaporating, so he took two or three of themost valuable slaves south. Now, by a "most valuable slave," what wasmeant was a fairly young man who was big and strong, and a really goodfarm laborer. Going south didn't do any good, of course, but he thoughtthis way he might be able to hold on to some of what he considered "hisproperty."


Levi Jackson was the first judge in Laurel County, Kentucky, a man ofproperty, well-respected in the community. He and his wife, RebeccaFreeman, had ten children and a really big house to run, and no doubtRebecca had her hands full. When there was a new baby in the family, oneof the slave women who had a baby at about the same time would come in tohelp in the kitchen and the house. It worked out very well, because herewere the two babies, and here were the two mothers, and if one of thebabies cried, whichever one, the mistress or the slaves, would pick upthe baby and nurse it. No thought was given to whether the baby wasblack or white - babies just need feeding.


One of my grandmother's stories was one time when her mother, RebeccaFreeman Jackson, was sick in bed, and one of her sons came home for ashort leave from the Civil War. The soldiers suddenly surrounded thehouse, and Rebecca told her son to hide under the bed. The soldiers wentthrough the house, looking for enemy soldiers, including the old lady'sbedroom. But when they saw this lady in bed, obviously in poor health(we are not sure what was wrong with her - too many children, too muchwork, and too much war, probably!), they politely apologized, didn'tdisturb her, and left. And here he was, hiding under the bed!


Levi Jackson's land was donated as a State Park. This park is stillthere, and is called "The Levi Jackson Wilderness Road State Park" southof London, Kentucky. You can find the website underwww.state.ky.us/agencies/parks/levijack.htm. This park encompasses 896acres in Laurel County, and includes the Defeated Camp Pioneer BurialGround, McHargue's Mill, and the Mountain Life Museum. In addition tothe historical aspect of the park, they offer a variety of recreationalactivities including hiking, camping, swimming, miniature golf, etc.
