Elena (Noriega)

Represented by Auriette Lindsey

I represent Elena, an enslaved woman in the household of Victoire LeSassier. I was listed in Victoire LeSassier’s 1830 complaint of divorce from Don Pedro de Alba as being a cook and laundress; I was 14 years old, though this probably referred to my age in 1813, when the late Don Jose Noriega’s property was divided between Victoire and her son.
