A large number of slaves who were born in Africa did not come directly to the English colonies or, later, the United States. Many people first spent some time on islands in the Caribbean before being brought here.Owners often purchased slaves from different parts of Africa.hey were not free to leave before the end of their term of service, often 5, 7 or 10 years.

Most American slaves did come from Africa.
