The Most Extraordinary Negro Dialect I Know Of Is The "Gulla" (Sometimes Spelled "Gullah") Of The Rice Plantation Negroes Of South Carolina And Of The Islands Off The South Carolina And Georgia Coast. I Believe That The Region Of Charleston Is Headquarters For "Gulla Niggers," Though I Have Heard The Argot Spoken As Far South As Sepeloe Island, Off The Town Of Darien, Georgia, Near The Florida Line. Gulla Is Such An Extreme Dialect As To Be Almost A Language By Itself. Whence It Came I Do Not Know, But I Judge That It Is A Combination Of English With The Primitive Tongues Of African Tribes, Just As The Dialect Of Old Creole Negroes, In Louisiana, Is A Combination Of African Tribal Tongues With French.

Albert C. Manucy (1910–1997) was an author, historian and a Fulbright Scholar who lived in St. Augustine, Florida. Manucy was a descendant of Josef Manucy, who sailed in 1768 from the city of Mahón in Minorca to work as an indentured servant on Andrew Turnbull's plantation at what was to be the failed colony of New Symrna. In 1779 Josef and the entire colony of settlers, made up mostly of Minorcans, as well as Greeks and Italians, left the dismal conditions of New Smyrna en masse.[1] They walked 70 miles north to the then British controlled city of St. Augustine to request sanctuary from Patrick Tonyn, the British governor of East Florida, which was granted by the courts of the province.
