NoraSlavery was officially outlawed in New York State on July 4, 1827. This was the culmination of a gradual process that began with legislative efforts in the late 18th century. The New York State Legislature passed a gradual emancipation law in 1799, which declared that children born to enslaved mothers after July 4, 1799, would be free, but only after serving an indenture term until they reached their mid-20s (28 years for males and 25 years for females).
The 1827 date marks the point at which the remaining enslaved individuals were emancipated, and slavery was formally abolished throughout the state. It’s important to note that while this legislation ended the legal institution of slavery, the transition for freed individuals was challenging, as they continued to face significant social, economic, and political barriers. The abolition of slavery in New York was a significant milestone in the broader movement towards ending slavery in the United States, culminating nationally with the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 and the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865.
