Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 Tubman’s story begins with a complicated set of relationships, black and white, between several generations of families living on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.
#2 Tubman’s story begins with the history of some of the white families who claimed ownership of her and her family. The detailed records of the lives of the white families who enslaved Tubman and her friends demonstrate the contrast between the lives of whites and blacks.
#3 Several documents did survive the fire, including the records of the Orphans Court from 1847 to 1852, which were saved because the clerk of the court brought the logbook home to work on it over the weekend.
#4 In 1797, Atthow Pattison, the patriarch of a long-established Eastern Shore family, died. He left his remaining slaves and livestock to his surviving daughter, Elizabeth, and her children. Rit’s and her children’s terms of service were limited to 45 years, in order for them to be eventually freed from slavery.
