A person of this surname, unplaced

Estanislada LERENA (Sarandi 229, 1850)

Twenty years old at casa 229 of Calle Sarandi in the padron of 1850, entered as 'Estanislada D.o' - the ditto carrying the surname LERENA - and recorded MORENA. She is one of four adults of colour bearing this family's surname in that house, where the only white person entered is the eleven-year-old Leonarda Lerena. This archive has documented five people it held in slavery, among them BARBARA, 'esclava de D.n Alejandro Lerena' on an act of 1846. Slavery was abolished in Uruguay in 1842, so in 1850 she is legally free. That the surname reached her as Barbara's reached her son is an INFERENCE and is filed as one; the census has no column for condition. What would settle it is a baptism or burial at the Cordon or the Catedral, where the word would be written.
