Slavery in Massachusetts: A descendent of early settlers investigates the connections in Newburyport

Susan Harvey is a history teacher at Littleton High School I Littleton, MA.  She is a graduate of Wellesley College and earned her Mater's in History from Fitchburg State University.  A direct descent of First Settler Anthony Morse, Harvey is also a descendent of early New England settlers Robert Tuck and the Reverend Stephen Batchelder, who settled Hampton, NH.  Her current research focuses on the extent to which the transatlantic slave trade supported the economies of New England towns and her family's connections to it.
