Edith Hern Fossett (1787–1854) began her life as an American slave. Three generations of her family, the Herns, worked in Thomas Jefferson's fields, performed domestic and leadership duties, and made tools. Like Edith, they also took care of children. She cared for Harriet Hemings, the daughter of Sally Hemings, at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello plantation when she was a girl.
