Slave inventory pages interleaved human names with horse and mule valuations.

Evidence

On another page, I saw more names of people listed with number values, intermixed with “Rhone Mare,” 100; Bay Horse, 75; and mules, 150. I may have let out a gasp, or a sigh. To see the names of people I immediately recognized as my ancestors alongside livestock was sickening. — Tamara Lanier, From These Roots, 361
