Colonial Boston frees Black man story

A rediscovered gravestone in Boston’s Granary Burying Ground is believed to be the country’s oldest marker for a free Black person, dating back to the early 18th century. The stone commemorates a man known as Boston, who gained prominence for his connections with colonial leader Samuel Sewall, helped influence early anti-slavery laws, and was revered in his community. His life, including his marriage and eventual freedom, exemplifies the experiences of enslaved and free Black people in Colonial Boston.
