When I visited the Delaware Hall of Records you always had to wear gloves to handle any of these type of fragile old resources. There is another view on the episode with Lionel Richie at:

In the episode, they said Morgan W. was Dr. Morgan Brown's son. If you found that Morgan W. died in 1853, then it sounds like he did fulfill his father's will and freed Mariah and Louis before the Civil War, unless there was a Morgan W. Brown III who owned them later. I don’t think Mark discussed this kind of detail on the show, or I don’t remember.

Brown referenced on John Louis Brown's pension application actually was? The episode implied he was Dr. Morgan Brown's son, but it does not look as though he could have been, because that Morgan W. Brown apparently died in 1853. During the BlogTalkRadio show, did Mark Lowe discuss who the Morgan W. Brown referenced on John Louis Brown’s pension application actually was?
