CT 128 – Quash

Based on his Akan name which was bestowed on boys born on Sundays, we believe that Quash was captured in current-day Ghana and then sold into slavery in New England. He was enslaved by David Scott. We have evidence to suggest that he and Dinah had three children, Lidia, Peter, and Ann. In the early 1740s, Scott sold all of his slaves except for Quash. On June 16, 1748, Scott signed a document that would emanipate Quash on Scott’s death. Scott lived another 12 years and then died in 1760. Quash was freed. He lived another 20 years before dying on March 26, 1780.
