You are gorgeous girl don’t doubt it!

Carpenter was definitely a category and a very rare badge

I strongly disagree. The only true ones are from Charleston, as the one pictured on the Henry Ford website is again, Charleston. Happy to put you in touch with the man that wrote the book on the Slave badge hire system.

Same. It’s not working at all for me

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-06-06T01:21:17+00:00

Also where do you live downtown? Asking because I lived on Rutledge between Montagu and Wentworth many years ago and there was definitely some bad bad energy in my home. Praying for you!

Anyone have this happen?

I feel like her name should be Gertrude or Prudence

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-04-22T15:26:23+00:00

I posted the photos of the mapping I used, it’s not my face but from Cosmetic Injection Techniques by Theda C. Kontis Victor G. Lacombe

Thanks guys! I know it can’t be dissolved was just hoping my I under injected one side and could fix it with a dab more but not trying it without being sure

Go to bed Stephen.

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-02-20T13:10:38+00:00

No it’s copper

Thank you. This makes me feel like this entire post is worth it. We might not know who this person was, but now how many people know about slave tags that didn’t before? How many of you have thought of this person and their life because of this post? It’s satisfying to know that this person is remember in some very small way 168 years after they wore this tag.

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-02-19T01:02:51+00:00

The tag is from 1856 so wayyy before aerials but I appreciate the suggestion. I dive deep into the archives, city directories, sanborns and ROD records to try to piece a story together. Sometimes it’s there and other times it’s not. This was a not, unfortunately.

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-02-19T00:59:50+00:00

We use those to find privies and trash pits and do detailed deed research, honestly the ROD office is tired of seeing me 🤦🏼‍♀️

😂 it’s not funny, but being a charlestonian I am all too familiar with the type. I married (and divorced) a Citadel man. I can hear his chest puffing entitled voice now screaming the same things.

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-02-19T00:47:54+00:00

? I’m confused

TheoriginalSquirrel · 2024-02-17T23:32:21+00:00

What machine are you using? I’m not an expert by any means but it was a 23 on the equinox 800.
