Best Answer

Isabella Baumfree, who later named herself Sojouner Truth, was one of thirteen children born to James and Elizabeth Baumfree, slaves of Colonel Hardenbergh. The Hardenbergh estate was in a hilly area called by the Dutch name Swartekill (just north of present-day Rifton), in the town of Esopus, New York, 95 miles north of New York City
