Hannah and her husband Jacquero were both enslaved at Sylvester Manor, in Shelter Island.
at Sylvester Manor in Shelter Island.
Per Nathaniel Sylvester’s last will and testament in 1680, Hannah and Jacquero were owned by his wife, Grizzell Sylvester, having brought them with her into the marriage.
Jacquero and Hannah's daughters, Hope and Isabell, were also enslaved by the Sylvester family. Hope was bequeathed to Grizzel Sylvester, and Isabel was bequeathed to her daughter Elizabeth Sylvester. Because Elizabeth lived in Southampton, this probably meant that Isabel was separated from her family unless Elizabeth was visiting Shelter Island.
