I believe the Banjo was brought by the African slaves. Originally it was made of a gourd and a wooden stick.
Most of them went to the plantations in the south. Mainly Georgia and South Carolina.
They needed workers. The first slave arrived in 1619. Indentured servants didn’t work out very well because they often disappeared among the colonists, but an African American in the colonies stood out. All African Americans were slaves, so they could be stopped and questioned if they were off of the plantation. The plantations were huge acres of land so many people were needed. By 1860 there were 6 million slaves in the south in slavery.
yes,there were very many African American (black) child slaves working on plantations and more (mostly plantations) during the civil war
