Information wanted of my broth-
er and mother, whose names were
Joe and Caroline. We belonged to
Tom Harvey, about fifteen miles
Charlotte Court House, Va. My
father's name was Cupid, he died
before I left there. I was given to
my young mistress, Polly, who
married a Thoruton, but I was af-
terwards seized and sold for debt.
My name is Yanka. Mother had
two children, Joe and myself. I am
the eldest, I had three aunts: Lucy,
Hannah and Mary. Any information
will be gladly received by J.
