How did the New Jersey colony depend on slavery?
Your question was an interesting one and I had to go look this up because I never remember reading anything specific on New Jersey and slavery. What I found was that in New Jersey the soil and climate didn't encourage a agriculture base like the south. Tobacco couldn't be grown and neither could cotton. Slavery was tried in New Jersey but because the agricultural base was small farms the profit for slavery didn't exist. In other words, the people couldn't grow enough to pay for the need of a slave. I also found that between 1774 and 1804 all the northern states abolished slavery. New Jersey didn't do it all at once and the slaves that were born after the passage of their emancipation act were freed after a certain age (usually in their 20's).
