may i suggest that you call/write the New Orleans Confederate Museum and ask if they will send you the list of sold slaves & perhaps the names and union army service numbers of the auctioneers. the last time i was there in 1990, the records were on display for all to see.

once more, i'm not going to spend what little free time i have chasing down references for you, as no matter what reference i post you wouldn't believe the source. in one case (was it you?) last year, a freeper said that the official service records at the US ARCHIVES were southron dominated and not to be believed. that particuliar stupidity ASSURED that i'd never do research on request of ANYONE on the forum, without charging my usual reasearch fee = $ 60.00/hour (what i charge to commercial clients to do family searches.)

So you have no evidence. I should have known that, based on your past posts, but it never hurts to double check.

If your are referring to the Memorial Hall Civil War Museum in New Orleans then I believe that once again you are displaying your active imagination and lack of accuracy. On their website the museum mentions their collection of items relating to General Butler's term as commander of the military occupation. They mention that they have copies of Butler's General Order #1 and #28 as well as items relating to the execution of William Mumford. If evidence that you describe did exist then it is likely that they would mention that in their website as well.
