A Massachusetts Superior Court judge has dismissed a Norwich woman’s lawsuit against Harvard University seeking release of photos of what she says are two of her enslaved ancestors, ruling that Tamara Lanier failed to file suit in a timely manner and was not herself wronged by the “horrific circumstances” in which the photos were taken. Lanier filed suit in March 2019 against Harvard and the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology after she said she made repeated unsuccessful requests to Harvard to turn over the 1850 daguerreotype images of a man named Congo “Papa” Renty and his daughter, Delia, both slaves in South Carolina. Lanier says she is a direct descendant of Renty and Delia.
