Early Abolitionist Who Escaped Slavery to be Honored in Semora
Born around 1815 in Caswell County, Roper was son of a mixed-race house servant (African-Indian) and her enslaver, Henry Roper, a planter. As an adolescent, Roper led a nomadic existence, repeatedly being sold or traded throughout the South before he was returned to Caswell County in 1832.
