She and I aren’t from the same immediate Magruder family, but we have a common ancestor. I knew McGruders out of St. Louis as a kid, we always thought it was funny that our names were so close, we had no idea about the history of it all. Much love and peace to all

Now I know I'm going to get a lot of crap for this but I really don't care. I come from a line of Magruders which is one of the spellings that come out of Scotland along with Mcgruder, as horrible as our past is we should focus on both sides of the coin. Alexander Magruder came over and was sold into indentured servitude got out of it and became a successful plantation owner, but treated all of his slaves with respect and dignity, which happened a lot in those days, yet all we hear about is the horrible things that happened... we need to hear both sides not just one.

@thickdaddy39 2 жыл бұрын

You shouldn't get crap for it. You have a right to your opinion. I'm just wondering how you treat a slave with respect and dignity? That's an oxymoron. My 3rd great grandfather fathered my 2nd great grandmother by a slave. He was a Confederate War hero. My 2nd great grandmother was denied her family name, history, and inheritance. There is nothing respectful or dignified about that. Slavery was a dirty institution. There was no getting out of it for African slaves and their descendants. We can't sanitize it. I'm also a descendant of Ninian Beall. He came to America from Scotland via Barbados in indentured servitude. However, he was white. His name is everywhere. There was a big difference.

Slavery had been a worldwide issue since antiquity and even before Columbus verified the new world. Even blacks in Africa had black slaved. Sometimes they were called servants, and that the wealthy could only afford to have and actually support them. It is said that St. Patrick was a slave in the UK. The Israelites were slaves in Egypt. There were few jobs back then also. It took the Constitution to turn that ship around and resulted in the Civil War where many whites died to uphold the Constitution.

@youyoo3408 2 жыл бұрын

@Aaron D. Digby, Sr. Im guessing that the Constitution set the course of no slavery, but it may of never been passed at the time if it was so explicit about ending slavery started before it by the old world colonizers and that the resulting production was vital for this nation to be. Blacks helped make America what it is today. Even women could not vote till an amendment. It took time to do things right.
