    by Julia Munro

JUEL ID/KEY: P47888

Bibbianna (last name unknown), female adult. She is recorded in a list of "Hirelings to be Sent to Captn. Winn (P47913), 1 Jany 1828," which lists 11 individuals total. It is not stated clearly whether Cocke sold the slaves to Winn; more likely he contracted them out to Winn based on the prices listed (see the links below for full transcripts of the letter). 

The "hirelings" that were to be sent to Captn. Winn in 1828 were: 

Dinah (P47885), Polly (P47886) and "her child  anon0064 (P47979) and nurse anon0065 (P47980)," Dilcy (P47887), Bibbianna (P47888), Aggy (P47889), Emily (P47890), Jenny (P47891), Louisa (P47892), and Fanney (P47893).
