Share Information About This Ad

I wish to inquire for my mother. She lived in Morgan City, La., about six or seven years ago; her name was Rhenor Turner. She gave me to a gentleman by the name of Gilbert Robinson. His wife was named Ann Robinson. I was very small then, and my new mother and father had relatives in Bryan, Texas, and moved here some seven years ago. My name is Millie. I heard from my mother once since I moved away—about 4 years ago. Any information will be gladly received. Address my husband, Joseph Ford, or J. A. Ford, Bryan, Brazos county, Texas.
