List of Missouri and Arkansas slave traders
Remove ads

This is a list of slave traders working in Missouri and Arkansas from settlement until 1865. The slave trade in Arkansas was comparatively small and developed relatively "late" in the antebellum era, such that "Like most areas of the state, neither Pope nor Conway County had an organized slave market. No existing county or court records, letters, or other documents mention slave dealers or firms routinely in the area, though small travelling dealers may have passed through western Arkansas, leaving no identifiable traces of their activities."[1]
