I represent Agata Sorbies, a free parda girl born in Pensacola. At the time of the 1820 census of Pensacola, I was 11 years old. I lived with my parents: Santiago Sorbies, a French shopkeeper, and Maria Vellon, a free negra woman. I had one little sister. We shared our household with Pedro Dalmacio, an elderly negro baker, but his relationship to us is not specified. Families of mixed ethnicity like ours were quite common in Spanish West Florida, as the Spanish did not have the same social taboos as Anglo-American society.
