Over 50% of the total populations of South Carolina and Mississippi were slaves. Slavery was everywhere. In South Carolina, some counties were >80% slaves.
In Louisiana, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama, the slave populations as a % of total population was over 40%.

Slavery was much more common in the South than neo-Confederates would like to admit. My last name is so uncommon that it’s essentially one of a kind in the world. There are quite a few black Americans in 2023 with that same last name. We were blue collar Americans for the most part during that period.
