Thesis (M.A.)--University of Maryland, Baltimore County, 2013.
The strenuous labor of the enslaved women who worked as "unskilled" hands on the outlying properties at George Washington's Mount Vernon is the focus of this thesis. Through a close examination of Washington's farm and plantation records from 1785-87 as well as scrutiny of his diary entries, letters, and other writings from this time period, this thesis crafts a detailed picture of the kinds of work women enslaved at Mount Vernon's outlying farms carried out and how they dealt with so-called "gang" work assignment patterns. Moreover, it sheds light on these women's roles as nursing, pregnant, and caregiving mothers within the context of their demanding work lives. This thesis posits that though enslaved men were certainly pivotal in the transition to diversified agriculture in the eighteenth-century Chesapeake, enslaved women performed many of the tasks that were vital to the success of that transition at Mount Vernon. Finally, this thesis argues that the fact that women did many of the monotonous and difficult tasks that were key this transition paved the way for enslaved men to gain opportunities for skilled labor.
