British Slave Trader Register Details

The Register of British Slave Traders is a comprehensive database resulting from three years of research that identifies approximately 13,000 individuals who invested in Britain’s historic transatlantic slave trade from the 16th to 19th centuries. It details their biographical information, investments, and societal connections, highlighting the involvement of figures from various social and political backgrounds, including politicians and local officials. The project aims to document the scope of Britain’s role in enslaving around 3 million Africans and traces investments from early privateers to state-backed companies until the trade’s abolition.
