Reverend Charles C. Jones of Georgia was different from most other slaveowners. He was a slave owner who struggled with the morality of having slaves. Even though he thought that slavery was necessary for the economy, he also believed that slaves deserved a more kindhearted approach and the right to have a religious education. He evangelized slaves and instructed other owners and ministers to do the same.
