Biography:

Joby and his wife Louvinia are the head of the family of slaves who have served the Sartorises for several generations and who (with the exception of Loosh) continue to work for them even after the Union army has passed through Yoknapatawpha, which gave most of the slaves in the area a chance to escape. He is Loosh's father-in-law and Ringo's grandfather.
