List of Micajah Mayo Slaves- Sale of Slaves after his death.
Micajah Mayo was one of the first settlers of the town of
Rome, GA. He owned a substantial plantation in Floyd Co,
GA. At the settling of the estate slaves were sold.
Micajah's daughter, Malissa Ann Mayo Foster lived the
better part of her life in Chattooga Co, GA. It occurred
to me that some of these slaves might have lived in the
area after the war and thought it important to list this
info. These are only first names, but may be of value
when people are researching their heritage. So, here is
a piece of history. Michelle Doss-4rth ggranddaughter of
Micajah Mayo
