Adam then sought a buyer for his wife and children, and ultimately settled on Colonel Livingston Gilbert Thompson from Meridian Hill, Washington D.C. The sale was completed on December 2, 1852, with Emily and three of her children being transferred to Colonel Thompson while two of them were forced to stay behind at the Three Sisters Plantation. Although it is believed the distance between Riverdale and Meridian Hill was similar to that between Riverdale and Three Sisters, Colonel Thompson's wife was less willing to allow Adam to visit his wife than Mrs. Hilleary had been so he began seeing his family on a biweekly, rather than a weekly, basis.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_1-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''10–15_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''10–15-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''Adam_Francis_Plummer''2_12-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''Adam_Francis_Plummer''2-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Living conditions at the Thompson residence were worse for Emily than they had been at Three Sisters; In June 1854, Emily's sixth child, Marjory Ellen Rose Plummer, died due to neglect within a year of her birth.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''15_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''15-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Colonel Thompson beat and swore at her children, and Emily would put herself in harm's way in order to protect them from his outbursts.

Because it was not a common practice to allow slaves to legally marry, the Northern United States and Canada generally recognized marriage licenses as proof of freedom. The Plummers knew this, and in 1845 they planned to escape with their children to a free state but were foiled when Emily's aunt provided details of the plot and handed over the marriage license to Mrs. Hilleary. In response, Mrs. Hilleary had Emily, who normally worked as a cook, work in the fields as punishment.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_1-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''7–10_10-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''7–10-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''Adam_Francis_Plummer''2_12-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''Adam_Francis_Plummer''2-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>After Emily had been relocated to <a href="/wiki/Mt_Hebron_(Ellicott_City)" title="Mt Hebron (Ellicott City)">Mt.

It did not, however, free slaves living in states which had remained loyal to the Union, including Maryland. This did not discourage Emily, who soon had her oldest son, <a href="/wiki/Henry_V._Plummer" title="Henry V. Plummer">Henry</a>, flee the plantation on his own. Emily made the next step in October 1863, taking along the remaining five children under her care, and going to Baltimore, where they were caught and kept in jail for two months. Emily was able to befriend the warden by working for him as a cook, and Colonel Thompson failed to pay the fees necessary to retake possession of her and the children. This provided Adam the opportunity to take custody of them instead. With most of the family finally together, Adam and Emily tasked Henry with bringing Sarah back from New Orleans which he did in October 1866.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_1-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''21–23_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''During_Slavery''21–23-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTE''Adam_Francis_Plummer''2_12-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTE''Adam_Francis_Plummer''2-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Final_Years_and_Death">Final Years and Death</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Emily_Saunders_Plummer&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Final Years and Death"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1870, Adam purchased a ten-acre homestead near Riverdale, nicknamed "Mt.
