Earlier this month, we discussed the lives of enslaved women at Monticello. This week we turn to the experiences of white women who lived on the mountaintop, including Thomas Jefferson’s wife, Martha Wayles Skelton Jefferson; Jefferson’s sister, Anna Scott Jefferson Marks; Jefferson’s daughter, Martha Jefferson Randolph, and her daughters. Their positions of comfort and authority stood in stark contrast to women held in bondage on the plantation, yet their choices were curtailed by patriarchal laws and customs of the time. Join us for a live Q&A with Associate Curator Emilie Johnson, Associate Curator of Decorative Arts Diane Ehrenpreis, and Senior Historian and Donor Relations Officer Ann Lucas HERE.
