Unique Person Identifier
A Unique Person Identifier (UPI) is a string of numbers and digits that help trace an individual through time and space. Many enslaved and indentured people did not have last names; a UPI helps one distinguish between individuals that have the same first name.

For example, there are instances when an individual will be referred to as "colored." In this case, please quote the description of the person's ancestry—"colored"—from the source material.
