Help[Facts] Re: My column on June
in reply to a message by clevelandkentevans
Francis Marion the Revolutionary War hero had a male slave named June prior to the war in 1780. The other slaves had English biblical names, but I wonder if there might have been another source other than Junius (which I always thought was brought to attention by the letters of Junius, 1772). Two other notable men named Junius were Junius Brutus Booth, father of John Wilkes Booth, and Junius Spencer Morgan, father of JP Morgan.
