Justinian Cartwright was one of ten individuals emancipated in 1819 by their slave-owning Shaker families who were part of the South Union Village in Auburn, Kentucky. This article traces Cartwright's activities from 1813, when he began working in the community's blacksmith shop until his death in Racine, Wisconsin, in 1862.
