Bannecker
Banneker's grandmother Molly Welsh was an English indentured servant who married one of her freed slaves in violation of Maryland law. At age 22, Banneker constructed an almost entirely wooden clock based on his own designs and calculations, which was unusual given he had only seen two timepieces before. In 1788 he nearly accurately predicted a solar eclipse and in 1791 assisted in surveying Washington D.C., proving Jefferson's views on racial inferiority wrong according to newspapers. In 1792 he published an almanac including his own calculated ephemeris and challenging Jefferson. On the day of his death in 1806, his house and all its contents, including his clock, burned down.

Florida graveyard
Six graves containing the remains of slaves were discovered at the Kingsley Plantation in Jacksonville, Florida. The graves contained the bodies of a man around age 40, a woman over age 60, and three children. Square nails, buttons, and skeletal measurements indicated the remains were of Africans from the 19th century. Descendents cannot be identified due to lack of documentation. Johnetta Cole, director of the National Museum of African Art, is a descendant of the Kingsley family and was emotional upon the discovery. Anna Madgigine Jai, Zephaniah Kingsley's wife, helped manage the plantation after being freed as a slave purchased in Senegal.
