Celia Johnson searching for her son Toney Roberts (formerly Toney Johnson)

MR. EDITOR - I wish to inquire for my son, who left me in Sslma, Ala., in 1873. His name is Toney Roberts. He at one time went by the name of Toney Johnson, but when he came to live with me after the emancipation, I informed him that his father was named Toney Roberts. I suppose he goes by the name of Roberts now. After he came to me from Louisiana we lived for a time at the Gaines place, in Dallas county, Ala. We then moved to Selma, Ala., where he left me, and I have not heard from his since. Any information of his whereabouts will be thankfully received. Address me, Celia Johnson, at Vicksburg, Miss., in care of the M.E. Church.
