Jones joins her husband Robert in seeking an injunction against the sheriff and various creditors to stop them from selling Eliza's slave Lucy; the petitioners declare that Lucy was seized to satisfy debts owed by Robert. They further avow that Lucy is Eliza's separate property and for her "exclusive use" and that "Robert B Jones has no title or interest in said slave Lucy." The Joneses insist that Lucy "is a family negro, and of great value," and if sold, will likely be removed out of the court's jurisdiction, "which lends to the manifest wrong and injury of your Oratrix."Seniors (enslaved)Westward migrationTitle dispute (enslaved)Purchase/Sale prices (enslaved)White attachment (enslaved)Property owners (women)
