Grant, Julia Grant, and their children Fred, Buck, Nellie, and Jesse had achieved a remarkable level of fame before they even entered the White House. But some members of their household remained invisible. Raised on a farm outside of St. Louis, Missouri, that was worked by about thirty enslaved people, Julia Boggs Dent received a chilly welcome when she married into the staunchly abolitionist Grant family. A formerly enslaved woman who worked for the family later recalled that the general \u00e2\u0080\u009cwanted to give his wife\u00e2\u0080\u0099s slaves their freedom as soon as he was able.\u00e2\u0080\u009d"}, {"label": "Exhibition Label", "content": "Having relied upon enslaved servants for most of her life, Julia Grant had only supervisory experience with cooking and baking.
