译文：华盛顿看到黑人士兵在美国独立战争中的英勇表现后，开始相信人生而平等，因此他不顾亲人的极力反对，在遗嘱中给予了他的奴隶们自由。
分析：本句的主干是Washington…overcame the strong opposition…。Who引导的非限定性定语从句对先行词Washington做进一步的解释说明。该定语从句中，who代替Washington充当主语，谓语是had begun to believe，宾语是that引导的定语从句，after observing the bravery of the black soldiers during the Revolutionary War是这个定语从句的时间状语，说明“开始相信”的时间。主句中，of his relatives修饰的是前面的opposition，而to grant his slaves their freedom in his will表明了华盛顿不顾亲人反对也要实现的目的。
