Thinking of Trevor Burnard & his family right now. I met Trevor in 2008 & he became a trusted mentor, writing numerous reference letters for me for more than a decade. A generous senior scholar & prolific historian who transformed the field of Caribbean history. RIP, Trevor.

This is the story of George Freeman: enslaved in West Africa, 'liberated' in Sierra Leone, and taken to live in 1812 Berkshire. My new article for Slavery & Abolition uncovers his life, and the difficulty of researching 'imperceptible' lives in the archive doi.org/10.1080/014403…
