What happened if the slave owner died?

Since slaves were considered chattel, they were distributed like any other property - unless the owner manumitted them in his or her will. If they manumitted them, they became officially free. Sometimes they would stay on as paid servants and workers for whoever took over the deceased person's property, other times they would clear out and head for territory where slavery was no longer legal lest they be forced back into slavery by some unscrupulous person who could take advantage of the fact that most of them were kept illiterate and consequently would have difficulty proving that they were free.

Rhode Island abolished participation in the slave trade in 1774, but did not end the ownership of slaves in the state until after 1784.

Slaves born before the 1784 law took effect remained slaves (unless manumitted by their owners); there were still slaves in RI into the mid-1800s.
