James Dennis searching for his mother's children Cilk, Samuel, and Joe Weston

MR EDITOR— I wish to inquire for the following names: Cilk Weston, Samuel Weston, Joe Weston; these are my mother's children. The last time that she saw them was in the year 1886. She belonged to old John Weston, of Jamestown, South Carolina, who sold her to old James Hibler, of Alabama, who was a Negro trader. When she was sold they were quite small, Joseph being about 10 years old, Cilk about 8, Samuel about 2 years old. She brought with her a little colored baby, about 8 months old, named Amanda. She was brought with another man by name of Sharper; he was the Negro driver. Any information of their whereabout please forward to James Dennis, Crystal Springs, Miss.
