Jack Staines was a free Black seaman who married Ona Judge in January of 1797, less than a year after her arrival in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Together, they had three children, Eliza, Nancy, and William Staines. Jack was often away from home due to the unpredictable nature of his seafaring occupation. He died of unknown causes in 1803, leaving Ona with three children to raise.
