Venerable Henriette DeLille

Servant of Slaves

1812-1862

Patronage: Racial justice

Henriette Delille was born, a "free woman of color" in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1812. Her father was a white man of French descent. Henriette founded the Sisters of the Holy Family, a Black religious congregation, to care for the slaves, free people of color, elderly, infirmed and poor, catechizing and providing for their physical needs. She worked heroically to bring people to God through reform, peaceful direction, and missionary work until her death at 52. She is the first United States native-born African American whose cause for canonization has been opened by the Catholic Church.

50 years ago this week, the USS Monitor was discovered off the North Carolina coast, 16 miles south-southeast of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Today, this site is protected by Monitor National Marine Sanctuary.

Because the wreck site of Monitor is not easily accessed by the average diver, NOAA’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries and The Mariners' Museum have created this virtual collection to act as a public resource to display many of the artifacts in pre- and post-treatment status to highlight the benefits of conservation and the science behind the conservation process. 

Explore the collection to learn more about the USS Monitor's artifacts and the stories these historic treasures can tell about the U.S. Civil War and life at sea in the 1860's:

Over the next four years, the Civil War would take more than 620,000 lives and cost the United States more than $5 billion. By 1865, two-thirds of the assessed value of southern wealth had evaporated; two-fifths of the livestock— horses and draft animals for tilling fields as well as pigs and sheep for food— were dead. Over half the region's farm machinery had been destroyed, most factories were burned, and railroads were gone, either destroyed or worn out. But by the end of the conflagration, the institution of human enslavement as the central labor system for the American South was destroyed.

Native American Confederates 1861-1865 🇺🇲 "The last Confederate troops to surrender in the Civil War were Native American... ...It was led not by one of the wealthy white southerners who made up much of the Confederacy's officer class — but by a Native American chief called Stand Watie. Watie raised a force of Native Americans to fight for the Confederacy as North and South went to war. It was the federal government, responsible for robbing Cherokee of their ancestral land, which Watie — in common with many of his people — saw as his main enemy, not the Confederacy. ....Many Cherokee were themselves slave owners, with some taking their slaves with them to Indian Territory after the forced resettlements west." #WhiteHistoryMonth #WHM2023 #EyesOnTheLiez #NativeAmerica #CivilWar #TheConfederacy #Slavery #Abolition #YuruguVirus #Yurugu #WeHaveNoFriends #Reparations 👣🦅♟️🪓🔗🏹 (at United States) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoNR_h6OYOv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
