Planter, Morris, 1802-

Morris Planter was the son of Leah Planter and Adam Morris Planter. His parents were enslaved in the John Teackle Household, but were emancipated on September 24, 1787. In 1811, John Teackle made arrangements for Morris, a free person of color, to serve an apprenticeship with Charles Bancker so that he could learn a trade. Research continues for this person.
