Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Validity of Slave Marriages Henry Jones, a negro slave, was married in Tennessee, by a Justice of the Peace, to a colored woman the slave of another master, with the consent of their masters. They had one child while in slavery, the fruit of such mai-riage, called Matt. C.Jones the mother died in slavery. Jones and Matt. C.were afterwards emancipated. Held, after the death of Henry Jones, that such marriage was not void: and that Matt. C.was the legitimate son of Henry Jones, and, as such, entitled to inherit his estate; notwithstanding the fact that his parents were slaves at the time of their marriage and his birth. Marriages of slaves, consummated during slavery in a slave State where there is no Statute declaring them void, are good for all purposes upon emancipation. Henry Jones was a colored man, and died intestate at Chicago on the 27 th day of April, A.D., 1863.Administration was granted by this Court on the following day, to Julius Rosenthal.
