We often talk about Duke Homestead as the birthplace of Washington Duke’s tobacco business. But it was also the birthplace of some important Duke family members, and where a handful of women worked to raise those children and maintain a home. Join us for a special program focusing on the lives of the women in the Duke Family household.Learn about the daily expectations of Victorian motherhood from young mothers, through pregnancy and birth, caring, teaching, mortality and remarriage, and enslaved vs white motherhood.
