I read in a book on the English language that southern accents are an off-shoot of African accents. When the slave owners kids would play with the slaves kids they would pick up their African accents. This eventually evolved into the southern accents that you uhear today.

Is the southern accent an original English accent?
This is one very popular theory. It is often considered that southern accents sound close to what English settlers sounded like in the 1500s/1600s. (Obviously there were many English accents, and many southern accents, but one particular strain at least). Over the last 400 years, the accents in England evolved and changed. Similarly, most Americans developed their own accent. But some parts of the U.S. retained the old accent (maybe because some Southern areas, like the Appalachians, were more isolated?)
