Best Answer

Barack Obama's father came from Kenya, so there are no known slaves on his father's side.

However, researchers at Ancestry.com recently made the claim that Barack Obama's mother descends from America's first known slave John Punch.

John Punch is known as the "First Slave" in America after he was sentenced to a lifetime of servitude in Virginia on 09 JUL 1640.
