I don't think they owned Irish slaves.


The Irish are referred to as laborers in the article and do not appear on the slave list, which is made up entirely or Africans or Creoles. Poor Europeans, including the Irish came as either indentured servants or common laborers or farmers in most instances. Slavery was reserved first for the native people or later those from Africa.
