In Pennsylvania, slaves were often purchased through slave markets or directly from slave traders, sometimes involving local auctions. While Pennsylvania's Quaker population advocated for the humane treatment of enslaved individuals, many slaves still faced harsh conditions and were subjected to labor in agriculture and domestic work. The gradual abolition law enacted in 1780 allowed for the eventual freedom of enslaved individuals, but until then, many experienced a life of servitude with limited rights and harsh treatment. Overall, treatment varied significantly depending on the owner, with some being more humane than others.
