Topic 4.13
How did views towards slavery differ between yeoman farmers and plantation owners within southern society during this period?
Yeoman farmers owned more slaves than plantation owners.
Yeoman farmers generally didn't own slaves due to financial constraints while plantation owners often relied heavily on slave labor for their large-scale agriculture operations.
Plantation owners didn't own slaves, but they employed free blacks instead.
Both groups refrained from slave ownership due to religious beliefs.
