Mary Aggie was an African-American slave known for taking part in a trial that resulted in a change in Virginia's statute law that allowed slaves to claim benefit of clergy. In the late 1720s Aggie tried to sue for her freedom. The attempt was unsuccessful, but managed to catch the attention of Lieutenant Governor William Gooch, who presided over the trial and believed that Aggie had made a good case of establishing her belief in Christianity. This proved to be beneficial when, in September 1730, she was indicted for stealing goods valued at forty shillings from her owner, Annie or Anne Sullivan. The value of the goods was enough to make it a felony, which was punishable by death during this time period, and Aggie was brought to trial in York County, Virginia.
