life insurance contracts for pregnant enslaved women
The slaveholder named Giacobina de Travi purchases insurance against the risk of death from childbirth from an underwriter named Giuliano Dondo for an enslaved woman named Marta, who is approximately 28 years of age and pregnant for about six months, for 112 Genoese florins. The term is three months from the date of the contract. The contract has extensive water damage so there are missing details about the underwriter and slaveholder.
