Wreckage not last ship to bring slaves to U.S., investigation finds

Investigators have determined that an old wooden wreck found on the Alabama Gulf Coast​ isn’t the last slave ship to land in the United States, the Alabama Historical Commission said Monday. A statement released by the state agency said the ship remains found north of Mobile are too large and new to be those of the Clotilda. WKRG-TV’s Bill Riales reports. Source
