C. G. Dunham searching for his mother Ann Elizabeth Garrison (formerly Eliza Wells)
MR. EDITOR: In glancing over the columns of your paper I find that you are very successful in finding lost relatives, so I thought I would get you to inquire for my mother's relations. Her name is Ann Elizabeth Garrison. She came from Winchester, Va., and belonged to a man by the name of Stewart Grant. He got broke and we were sold at auction. My brother John and I were sold together to a man by the name of George Harrison, and my mother and the other children were sold to a tinner by the name of Abram Nelton; her name was Eliza Wells before she married my father; his name was Paten Garrison. He belonged to a man by the name of Mr. Massie, and he left him and went to Canada. Then brother John and I were sold to George Kitchen, and he sold me to Mr. Castleman, who brought me to this country. Brother John was the oldest child, and I was next; the next one to me was Caroline, the next was Charlie; I don't remember the other children's name and how many. I was 10 years old when I left mother. I am her son, C. G. Dunham. Direct to me at 282 1/2 Washington street, between Baronne and Dryades streets, New Orleans, La. Gonzales, Tex.
