ANSWER:
The first evidence of slavery in what is now known as the United States of America, comes from the sales records of the 1640's. The records show that Blacks nearly always brought higher prices than White servants, apparently because they were in permanent bondage.
The first legal recognition of slavery was a Virginia statute of 1662, which said that the status of a newborn child depended upon the status of the mother.
If she was free, the child was free; if she was a slave, the child was a slave. This made slavery inheritable. Five years later the Virginia assembly decreed that conversion to Christianity did not automatically free a slave, an action that eliminated the remaining door to freedom for Blacks.
Although President Lincoln, issued the Proclamation of Emancipation in 1863, slavery would not come to an complete end, until the American Civil War was over in 1865.
