Share Information About This Ad

MR. EDITOR--I wish to inquire for my father, brothers and sister. I was born near Maplesville, Ala. and belonged to Mr. Cole. Father was Eli and mother Dethoney; she died when I was seven or eight years old. Brothers were Noah, Allen, Green, Yonng, Dave and Ezekiel; and sister was Lucinda. I left them when very young, and was brought here 25 or 30 years ago by Mr. John Cole. I now call myself Wash Allen. Address me at Coushatta, Louisiana.
