Intertwined: The Enslaved Community at George Washington’s Mount VernonEpisode 4: LivingEpisode 4: “Living”
Kate, her husband Will, and their children lived and worked on Muddy Hole Farm. When her family suffered a tragedy, they drew strength from the kinship ties and friendships they shared with other members of Mount Vernon’s enslaved community.
