Biography

Neal Galighan mentioned in the Town of Warwick's records as born to a slave belonging to SSS. Also mentioned in 18290703FMS_WHS as being disappointed when it rains on the fourth of July. "Neale and Charles" mentioned in the letter as a pair, which makes sense given that the Town of Warwick's records also notes a Charles Seward born May 1813 as property of SSS. So both boys would have been about the same age and social station and grew up together.
