Araminta Ross, born in Maryland around 1820, worked both as a house slave and a field worker for a family in Dorchester County. Ross was an advocate for slaves' rights and was even hit at one point by a brick while protecting a fellow field worker. As a result, Ross had to deal with a condition that sent her into bouts of deep sleep, presumably narcolepsy, for the rest of her life. In 1844, Ross married John Tubman and took his last name while changing her first to Harriet.
