The Alabama Black McGruders tells the story of Charles McGruder Sr. (1829 - 1900-c), his father Ned (1795 - 1853-c) and mother Mariah Magruder (1800 - 1880-c). Charles, the enslaved black grandson of a white slave owner, Ninian O. Magruder (1744 - 1803) was born in Alabama on the plantation of his white aunt, Eleanor Magruder Wynne (1785 - 1849) in 1829. Through a series of events, Charles, a carpenter, came to be sexually exploited and forced to sire a hundred children, including fifty-two sons, with numerous women. During the Reconstruction era, Charles, his last wife Rachel Hill (1845-1933), and their children received reparations from his white relative and enslaver, Osmun A. Wynne (1804 -1877). Charles' children established communal and business networks and institutions to support their families and communities. Today, the Alabama Black McGruders continue to impact the story of the United States in areas of culture, government, law, science, medicine, academia, and business. This is the story of their origins.
