Jemima Howard looking for her brother Jacob and sister Drusilla
DEAR EDITOR ---- Please allow me
space in your valuable paper to inquire
for my brothers and sisters.
We belonged to Mr. John R. Goff.
of Tucker county, West Virginia.
I was sold to Wm. Elliott, of same
State. My sister Louisia was sold
to Bob Kid, and was sent here to
Louisiana. My brothers' names
are Jerome, Thomas, Jacob, Joseph
and Uriah Culberson. The sisters
were Jemima, Drusilla, Louisa and
Eunice Jane. Jerome, Joseph and
Eunice Jane I know are dead. Uriah
is still living near the old home.
Thomas went with the rebel army.
Jacob and Drusilla are I know not
where. I married Jas. H. Howard
in Wheeling, W. Va., in 1868, and
moved here in 1873. My sister
Louisa is here living with Gilbert
Daigre, her former owner, as his
wife. I am very anxious to know
their whereabouts, and any information
that will enable me to find
them will be thankfully received.
Atlanta, Ga., Richmond, Va., and
Baltimore, Md., papers please copy.
Address me at Baton Rouge, La.
JEMIMA HOWARD.
