Polly Reed searching for her mother Clarisa and several siblings

Our family belonged to Mr. Gorham
of Georgetown, Kentucky.
I was sold from them in 1853, when
I was seventeen years old, to a
slave trader named Owens, since
which I have no word of them.
My father was dead. My mother
was named Clarisa; I had five
brothers, Clifton, William, George,
David and Jordan; and three sisters,
Ann, Sydney Jane and Mary
Eliza. Address Polly Reed, care
of Rev. D. Mucker, Georgetown,
Texas.
