Spencer Coleman searching for his mother Mary and brother Ed

DO YOU KNOW THEM?
HEMSTEAD, TEXAS, April 27, '98
I desire to know the whereabouts of
my relatives. I was born 18 miles
from Richmond in Hanover County.
I belonged to Mr. Gilliam who lived in
Hanover Co. My mother's name was
Mary.
Our owners died and we were sold
and all brought to Texas, except brother
Ed. and myself. I was bought by a
Captain James Trice, who lived in
Louisa Co. Brother Ed. was bought
by a Dr. Terrell of Hanover Co. He
married a girl named Amanda. He
was hired out in Richmond to drive a
hack and I have not heard from him in
18 years. When heard from last he
was in Richmond.
He had seven children, six boys and
one girl. Their names are Andrew,
Reuben and Mary Thomas. The girl
married. but I do not know her
husband's name.
Any information will be thankfully
received by
SPENCER COLEMAN,
Hempstead, Texas.
