Texas Slavery Project
The Texas Slavery Project is a digital history project created by Andrew J. Torget, currently Assistant Professor of History at the (University of North Texas ). It aims to explore the expansion of slavery between the years 1837 and 1845 in the lands in and around what would eventually become the state of Texas. It has been listed as among “the best and most important new work” in the developing digital history medium. The project was presented at the 2007 Nebraska Digital Workshop held by the (Center for Digital Research in the Humanities ) at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
==Project Creation==

The initial creation of the (''Texas Slavery Project'' ) arose from the needs of Andrew J. Torget while writing his doctoral dissertation examining the movement of American slaveholders and their slaves into Mexico during the 1820-1840s. Using the collection of tax information Torget assembled during his research, he created a database of population levels which was adapted into a digital MySQL format to allow greater control over the information contained in the database. Using the data from this new database, Torget then used Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) to visualize the spatial relations reflected in the population information which created highly complicated interactive maps.〔
〕 In an interview with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s (''Digital History'' ) website, Torget claimed that that use of these digital techniques provided for him “a microscope, of sorts, to look into the data that I already have in ways that, otherwise, I couldn't have done.”〔 〕
In their examination of “exemplar” digital history projects in the May 2009 issue of the American Historical Society’s ''Perspectives on History'', historians Douglas Seefeldt and William G. Thomas heralded the ''Texas Slavery Project'' for its display of “how a digital project might extend, deepen, and launch interpretive aspects of a dissertation.”〔
