• Scholar and genealogist, Ja'el Gordon reached out for research assistance on the labeling of Enslaved Creoles as "Creoles" in Colonial Louisiana.
• Through research, I was able to provide several records (marriage, wills, etc.) from manuscripts showing enslaved Creoles labeled as Louisiana Creoles during the colonial era.
• My findings helped enhance the overall research project and shed light on enslaved Louisiana Creoles in the 18th century.
• Ja'el Gordon continues to reach out and work with Quinn on research projects that require additional researchers.
